NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) When Keqiu Wang and her husband Jiamde Lin opened Crazy Wings last year, they didnt realize things could get so crazy.
I just hate the bad people, Wang said.
On Sunday night, a 19-year-old walked into the restaurant on Ballentine Boulevard in Norfolk.
Wang said the teen didnt cover his face and that he had a gun.
He told me, Open the drawer,' she said.
Wang wasnt just about to hand over the money, though.
I fought with him and then Lin came in and I got the gun, she said.
Surveillance video captured the whole encounter. Wang not only fought, but she also grabbed the gun and didnt let go. At the same time, Lin grabbed a huge knife and came running out of the kitchen.
Lin fought with him and then we both fought with him, Wang added. We fight together and Lin cut him and he left.
The teenager ran out of the restaurant after Wang wrestled the gun out of his hand. A short time later, police found 19-year-old Jabri Brown down the street. His back was slashed.
Brown was charged with robbery, attempted robbery and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony.
Brown is being held at the Norfolk jail and will make his next court appearance in July.
Wang says she is happy he was arrested, but at the same time sad, because he is so young.
I hope he can change something, Wang added. I hope he doesnt do it anymore.
I buy all my Chinese food from a little Chinese guy who has a small store front take out business.
He's a funny little guy who's missing half his teeth but boy does he like to laugh.
His wife suffers from dementia and he's her sole caretaker. He has three daughters, all of whom graduated from the University of Michigan. One is now living in New York, another in Australia and the youngest in Chicago......
Yeah, then we would have an inkling of what the chopped meat mystery meat was on the next night’s menu.
This’ll stop the adware crap:

Sometimes you can bring a knife to a gun fight and prevail....
“asian women....one thing I learned...
DO NOT MESS with her money...”
One group of people I never like to do business with. Indians as well. They’ll sign the contract but don’t think they will just pay the price on there. When the work is complete, then the haggling begins.
I’m sure that sounds racist, but it’s just world experience. Asian women and Indian men. I never go out of my way to do business with them.
Yah, what began as the heroic struggle of an honest business owner could have ended in tragedy.
Somebody give Mrs. Wang a clearing barrel!
Or better yet, gun-clearing lessons.
——Im sure that sounds racist, but its just world experience——
It’s their culture....
Years ago when I worked for a soft drink company, I dealt with them everyday....
Short story... I had a Indian store owner who wanted to negotiate the invoice which he approved, after I delivered about 200 cases to him....
He went over the invoice and said he would pay only X ...
I got in my truck and fueled up with about 80 gallons of diesel....
I went to go pay and told him if the price on my invoice was negotiable, then the price on his sign outside was negotiable...
He threatened to call the police...I told him go right ahead, while they are here I will ask them to arrest you for nonpayment...he paid and never gave me trouble again...
End of story...
Wang has a healthy attitude toward evil... If more of us felt this way there would be fewer bad people in our county.
Great link. This story made smile. Good, old-school response on both their parts.
Thank you carriage_hill

You’ll be amazed at what some of the websites throw at you/your browser.
Glad to help.
Yeah - had something similar happen when worked at computer store
Entire family (parents, children, grandparents, etc) would show up to buy computer
Only one who spoke English was one of children - was spend hour explaining everything to them
After making decision and writing up sale they would declare not paying Sales tax on purchase
Hilarity would result as manager would tell them had to pay sales tax !
Anythime would see one of these mobs show up would be like cockroaches when lights on - everyone would disappear into warehouse
One of our people, An Indian, will disappear too - his explanation was didnt want to deal with them any more than we did!
“I copy the headline and search YouTube. “
I wondered what the secret was to that.
Thanks
“It would be interesting to know how long this couple have been in the US before CREATING THEIR OWN BUSINESS........”
Somewhere between 30 and 45 seconds.
Orientals are generally ferocious when it comes to business and work ethic. They were probably selling pencils on the airplane ride over.
After the suspect fled, when she fired the gun to see if it was real, I bet her husband jumped out of his skin.
Bang! She did well to fend off the thug but almost blew it away.
