A Starbucks customer was hailed a hero after performing pro-wrestler style moves on a would-be robber in the United States city of Fresno this week.
Jerri hit Flores from behind and a fight ensued. The two began fighting, and at one point Jerri was stabbed in the neck. He is expected to recover from all injuries he sustained during the altercation. During the fight, Jerri managed to wrestle the knife away and stab Flores several times before he ran away.
Cops say that Florez got into a truck and drove away from the scene, but ditched the vehicle and was later found bleeding on the side of the road.
He was taken to hospital and will be charged with attempted armed robbery and assault with a deadly weapon upon his release.
"It's not something we recommend".
Fresno police Chief Jerry Dyer said that Florez has no criminal record as an adult. "But nonetheless, he's a hero - there's no question", he said.
