Martin Richardson, whose bravery foiled an attempted hold-up of a betting shop in Leeds, has spoken about the incident.
CCTV video shows Azar Sulman enter the bookmakers in Burley holding what appears to be a handgun.
After threatening the cashier, he tries to leave the shop, but is blocked by Martin Richardson, who hits him twice with a chair and holds him to the ground until police arrive.
Mr Richardson told BBC reporter Chris Buckler he thought he was going to be shot, so he "hit him (the robber) twice with a chair".

Didn't that robber watch "Snatch"?

Otherwise he'd know that anyone who tries to blag the bookies gets fucked over.

Hah, I do love the Leeds accent. It's quite weird to hear it on video, despite the fact I live there.

Oh and the guy looks like a fucking terminator. Next time, rob a tofu store :olo:

the guy seemed to be either completely mis-wired or a total bad ass. There was something hard, egoless and unflinching in dude's account, like it was so routine as to be almost boring. :ol:

haha bloody hell, you wouldn't mess eh? The big guy did seem to be holding on to his "tough guy" persona during that interview, but he knew his mates would be watching it didn't he? :P

He is kinda lucky the criminal was shitting his pants and unable/unwilling to pull the trigger on that gun though.

he's trying to leave out the part of the story where he thought "don't point that fucking thing at me".

yes, gramps shoots at paper, but why would a bank robber have a receipt?
