Gangster Granny: Elderly Texas Woman Stabs Robber With BBQ Fork [FBHW]

Man, it just doesn't pay to be a robber these days. Hot on the heels of the story about a pair of Canadian robbers that were maced and spanked, Free Beer and the guys talked about a crazy story out of Texas, involving an elderly woman dishing out hot BBQ justice to an unfortunate robber.

Margaret Jackson, 73, foiled a would-be robbery after discovering that a young man was trying to break into her daughter's home in Houston. Rather than just calling the police, Jackson grabbed a nearby barbecue fork and headed around to the back of the house to confront the fleeing teenager.

"She chases him," said Free Beer. He went on to describe how Jackson ended up stabbing the robber in the neck with the fork, before he was able to escape. "That was impressive," said Zane. "White people can't pull that off, in any capacity."

We're surprised that Jackson bothered chasing after the guy. Not only is it dangerous for any woman her age to go running after a teenager, but she could have just nailed him with her shoe instead.
