A grandmother and store owner in Milwaukee foiled an armed robbery attempt when she pulled a gun on the knife-wielding man who attempted to grab cash from her register.<br /><br />Ernestine Aldana is 48 years old and has owned the San Ignacio Market in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for two years. On December 14, a man in a dark hat, jacket and pants walked into her store. Security camera footage shows him grabbing a drink from the refrigerated section. Hidden up his right sleeve was a knife.<br /><br />The suspect, described as a Hispanic male, about 35 and between 165-180 pounds, approached the counter. He brandished the knife and attempted to rob the register. But Aldana wasn't having any of it. She pulled a firearm hidden behind the counter, resulting in a brief scuffle before the suspect decided to flee. <br /><br />It's just as well for him. Aldana told US media: "I believe if I would have had my finger on the trigger I would have shot, thank god it actually didn't come to that, everybody thinks it's easy to pick up a gun and shoot someone, it's really not."<br /><br />Aldana was given the gun by her son. She has shot the gun twice before at a shooting range. Milwaukee police have released footage of the armed robbery in the hopes of arresting the suspect.<br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />TomoNews is your daily source for top animated news.
