Default Would-be carjacker thwarted by manual gears

An interesting story to read:

http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,20601928-2,00.html

All I can say is the woman must be Irish or blonde.

I read this story earlier as well from here...

http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/...850958819.html

what I love about it is the tiny little details that they leave out.

The story says that the owner of the car was fine and didn't go to hospital. It also says that two men stop the hijacker, and the hijacker goes to hospital before the police station.

So, any guesses what two guys can do to a 20yr old girl to stop her from leaving the scene that requires more than a bandaid?

oh and not to hijack the thread, but to contine my theme...

Last night I heard on the radio of two kids who were stabbed in school up here. They said, one kid was stabbed in the arms, one in the stomach and a third was taken in for quesitoning.

So the way I figure, the kid that was taken in for questioning stabbed the other kid in the stomach and stabbed the kid in the arms who tried to stop him.

Had you been that girl, would you just put your hands up and say "you got me, here I am take me away" I doubt that very much. Chances are she had no intention of being held up by anyone, especially as she had just assaulted someone and tried to steal a car in broad daylight, and tried to punch, kick, bite and hair pull her way out, no mercy for the b!#@h
