Once Again, Texas Leads the Way

And stay off her lawn!

67-year-old attack victim uses 'Three Stooges' defense - NBC-2.com WBBH News for Fort Myers, Cape Coral & Naples, Florida: "'I had watched the Three Stooges cartoons a long, long time ago. I actually wanted to hook his neck with the front part of my cane, I wanted to hook him and I wanted to pull him inside my kitchen,' Henrietta Lopez said.

67-year-old Henrietta Lopez is describing her first thoughts when she found a man sitting in her car outside of her Corpus Christi, Texas home Thursday night.

'So, he came to me. I don't know if he was going to attack me or whatever he was going to do, but when he came to me, I let him know that I was not afraid of him and that I was going to take care of him,' Lopez said.

Lopez didn't have to look very far for a weapon.

'I pulled my cane and I held it just like a baseball bat, I held it and when he came over I just let him have it over the head,' Lopez said."
