The headline is a lie. She did not fight off anyone. She and her daughter were both robbed. She was shot and seriously injured. Her daughter suffered a serious head wound that required surgical staples. The media are liars.

From the article:

“With the 20-year-old daughter alone in the car, the masked robber yanked open the driver's side door and jumped in alongside Stifter, police said.

"Give me all your money," he demanded only to find the woman had no cash. Sources said the gunman stole four rings off Meredith's fingers before bashing her in the head with his black pistol.

"The college student(daughter) went to see her mom after getting four surgical staples at Queens Hospital Center to close her head wound."

"The mother's pocketbook, with her iPhone, was also stolen in the robbery"
