CAMAS, Wash. (UPI) — Police in Camas, Wash., said a 66-year-old woman chased down and wrestled a 22-year-old armed robbery suspect to the ground.
Joshua Crowley was arrested on suspicion of armed robbery after he allegedly held up a Kentucky Fried Chicken franchise at knifepoint, KPTV, Portland, Ore., reported.
A store clerk dialed 911 immediately after the suspect exited the fast-food restaurant and the manager ran outside and alerted drive-through customers and passersby that the store had been robbed and pointed out the suspect as he fled.
Mary Chamberlain, 66, one of the motorists alerted by the manager, followed Crowley in her car before exiting the vehicle and confronting the suspect, police said. She wrestled Crowley to the ground and police arrived within seconds to arrest the alleged robber.
