Tim Vaughn, who works for Papa John's, was sitting in his delivery car at a stop sign on Indianapolis' east side early Tuesday morning when someone stuck a knife through his window and held it to his throat, telling him to get out of his car, 6News' Rick Hightower reported.

In a split-second, Vaughn decided he didn't want to be injured or worse and took an unusual step that took the would-be robber on an unexpected ride.

Vaughn pulled out his seat belt and wrapped it around the man's arm.

"I just kind of pulled it out and his arm was sticking in the window, so he was right here," Vaughn said. "I pulled it out and around and wrapped it and stepped on the gas."

Vaughn dragged the man alongside his car for three blocks, north on Emerson Avenue, before undoing the seat belt and letting him go.
"Ees gun! Ees not safe!"

Reminds me of a film clip where an undercover informant female was buying drugs and the dope dealer either tried to rob her or saw the surveillance camera and tried to grab her out of the car and she took off with him hanging on the door,he's begging her to slow down and she's scared if she does he will hurt her so she drives faster yelling at him to let go and he's asking her to drive in the grass where it will be softer and then he can't hang on any longer and disappears,that'll sure ruin you're day

I'll bet it will be awhile before he sticks his arm in someones window again. :smilelol5:

That was a very good example of fighting with what you have, that's for sure.

How does the saying goes?

The real weapon is inside the mind?
