70 Year Old Gardner Man Beats the Shit Out of a 24 Year Old Intruder With His Crippled Arm
GARDNER (CBS) — Seventy-year-old Michael Salame has eight heart stents, nerve damage and apparently quite a right hook, as an alleged home invader found out. It was about 3 a.m. Saturday when Salame was at home with his girlfriend and heard something outside. He didn’t realize the intruder, identified as 24-year-old Timothy Adams, had already shattered a window and climbed inside… “I went to the other side of the house to call the police department and didn’t want to spook him so I didn’t turn any lights on,” Salame said. “I turned around and there he was, he was inside my house.” Salame said he was in no mood for visitors. “He came in and that’s when I grabbed him by the throat and slammed him down on the floor and told him to stay on the floor and not to put his hands in his pockets… He managed to get up again and he tried to get up the staircase and I decked him three times with a right and he went down again,” he said. “I give him three good rights — I caught him right in the face. He went down and he never got up again.” It’s not like Salame’s some retired boxer, he’s got all kinds of medical conditions. Due to nerve damage, Salame has to wear bracelets with metals straps on his arms at night. “That kind of worked as a weapon,” Salame said. “It worked like a boxing glove.” When the intruder went down, Salame said the would-be thief offered him thousands of dollars to let him go. “He offered me $100,000,” said Salame. Salame told the man the only place he would be going is the police station.
Let this be a lesson to all you young punks out there who call me Old Man. Michael Salame is old enough to be my father and he’s got chunks of whippersnappers like you and Timothy Adams in his stool. Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while you shouldn’t have fucked with? That’s Michael Salame. This old buck probably fought the North Koreans. Shot men, stabbed them with bayonets, chopped up 17 year olds with shovels. He’d blow a hole in your face and then go in the house and sleep like a baby, you can count on that. He used to stack fucks like you five feet high in Korea… use ya for sand bags. You think he’s going to be intimidated by finding some junkie 1/3 his age in his house? Not a chance. So you can all lay off the Old Man stuff, because they stopped making genuine badasses like Salame long before you punks were born. And get off my lawn:
