Delivery Man Fights Off Would-Be Robber With Squash

Quote:
(Nov. 3) -- A delivery man in New Hampshire found a new way to squash crime.

When a crook attempted to rob a corner store in Manchester, a worker delivering food to the shop stopped the perp with the closest weapon he could find -- a squash.
