The Running (Into Things) Man

How do you stop a mugger who steals purses from women in his tracks? That’s easy, put a parked car in his tracks. I wish I was kidding. If it’s this easy to stop muggers, then maybe the police department will ease up on parking restrictions.
According to the AP, a purse thief was foiled by a parked car.
Apparently he just ran into it meaning that the car did more to stop a thief than the annoying car alarm inside ever could.
The thief threatened the woman with a box cutter then took off with her purse. He looked back at her to make sure he wasn’t being followed and failed to notice the large hunk of metal and rubber in his path.
He hit the car so hard that he dropped the purse and left a huge dent in the car. He got away, but fortunately he left his dignity behind at the scene.
