Ex-Marine Teaches Pickpocket a Lesson

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) -- Bill Barnes says he was scratching off a losing $2 lottery ticket inside a gas station when he felt a hand slip into his front-left pants pocket, where he had $300 in cash.

He immediately grabbed the person's wrist with his left hand and started throwing punches with his right, landing six or seven blows before a store manager intervened.

"I guess he thought I was an easy mark," Barnes, 72, told The Grand Rapids Press for a story Tuesday.

He's anything but an easy mark: Barnes served in the Marines, was an accomplished Golden Gloves boxer and retired after 20 years as an iron worker.

I've got a friend who earned an assault charge a couple of years ago for beating up a couple young men (late teens to early 20's) who'd been foolish enough to berate him and taunt his wife while they were waiting at a stoplight. :D He was in his mid 60's at the time...and an ex-marine and golden gloves boxer. ;)

It was somewhere around 5-7 years ago, but he's only 70 right now, and only a few miles away from me (versus Michigan at 2,000+ miles away). ;)
