It happened just after 2 p.m. Thursday at Maya's Mini Market on Adams Boulevard.
According to store owner Rena Amaya, the suspect was shopping when another customer came in and made a large wire transfer. When the customer left, the suspect also walked out but came back shortly after. The owner said the suspect asked the clerk about a product from behind the register but suddenly attacked her.
The video, which was captured by a store surveillance camera, shows the suspect pointing a knife at her."When the lady grabbed the order ... the guy came around the counter and he pointed at her a big knife," said owner Amaya. "But theis a brave girl, but she fought against him. She got the knife and she chased him ... trying to get him."
The clerk said Amaya usually monitors the store's activity on his phone. She tried to call him, hoping he'd hear or see the commotion, but he didn't.Anyone with information is urged to contact police.
Gun would’ve responded quicker!
Awesome! Isn't it ironic though, that the same democrats whose policies are increasing crime want to take away your ability to defend yourself.
Got his booty run out by a girl with his own knife! I can’t love this more😂🙌🏼
Start wearing your gun at work! It is your legal right to do so! If the business has a no gun policy, then give your notice and find a company that will..
Wish she would've landed that heavy stab she attempted.
Oh my god what a legend. My girl said my turn a ver!!
'We called 911...it took a lot of time...' Why?

This woman is incredible
She should have poked him once so he could be identified!
Has Gascon had the clerk arrested for assault yet?
He needed the money to by bread for his family
Yes!!!
this is so scary and 911 was too slow to came
I’m pretty sure Gascon does not approve of the clerk defending herself
