A 92-year-old war veteran proved that age is nothing but a number when two men tried to rob his home — and only one walked away.
According to reports, the former soldier, who first picked up a rifle at just 18 while serving overseas, wasn’t about to let criminals intimidate him on his own turf. When the intruders broke in, he relied on the same instincts and training that carried him through wartime decades ago.
With a steady hand and one well-placed shot, he stopped the threat instantly. Both robbers bolted — but only one ever made it out.
Neighbours have since praised the elderly man as a “living legend,” calling the act “old school America” at its finest. Online, people couldn’t believe the story, with one commenter saying: “92 years old and still sharper than men half his age. Respect.”
