"A man escaped a hold-up in North San Jose by pushing his assailant and running away late Tuesday, police said. Around 10:30 p.m. a man walking near the intersection of Cropley and North Capitol avenues was approached by an armed man, according to police records. The armed man asked the other for his cash. The man pushed the robber and ran away with his money still in his wallet, police said. The would-be robber, it's unclear what kind of weapon he had, reportedly headed west toward Capitol." I'd bet the robber didn't have a gun or he'd have sot the victim as he ran away. I've always said if a robber or other kind of assailant had anything less than a gun, a disguised stun gun or pepper spray would stop him long enough for the victim to run away. He didn't even need one in this story. (San Jose Mercury-News,)
