PS3 Thief Beaten Up By Girl
by Stephen Johnson

A thief made the mistake of a lifetime recently. He broke into professional female boxer Derdre Rodriguez's house and tried to steal her PS3, PSP and videogames as she lay sleeping.

She woke up, saw the robber climbing out of her window, chased him down, smashed his head in with an ice chipper, then, in the most awesome coupe-de-grace ever, the former pugilist forced the thief to pick up the stolen electronics he'd dropped during the chase (A PlayStation 3, a PSP, cell phones and videogames). She then made him wait in the house for the cops to show up and arrest him.

5. That's an awesome feeling.
Good for her!

We subleased a condo last summer while we were between houses. One afternoon (when we normally would have been at work) my husband I were at the condo when we heard something fall over on the fenced/gated/locked porch. I went out the front door to see what was happening on the porch, and there was a homeless guy standing on a table lifting my bicycle up over his head and getting ready to drop it over the fence.

The feeling of shouting that man out of there and running him off was even better than the time I confronted then chased off a peeping tom in my barefeet and bathrobe.

9. Talk about instant karma.
She definitely rewrote the script in this situation.

Attention all women: strength training pays off!

15. Heh. Good for her.
Sounds like the thief should have done a little research before he picked a house to rob.
