The four women are workers at Tony's Breakfast in Washington DC
A robber who tried to steal cash from a takeaway restaurant in Washington DC, USA must be a man of regrets as he had to fight off four brave women who were behind the counter.
In surveillance footage released by police, the unidentified suspect is seen loitering around the establishment as other customers collect their food. He suddenly reaches for the cash register but is in for a shock when four women behind the counter give him a tough fight. As he swoops in to grab the cash register, the ladies show him what "women power" really is.
The brave women keep a tight grip on the cash register. Two of them hit him on the head. Several punches, whacks and smacks later, the thief realises he is no match to the women's might and strength. He lets go and runs for his life.
"At the moment, it was like adrenaline. We were use doing our jobs," Justine Choe, one of the workers who hit the suspect on the head, told wusa9.com.
The thief managed to get away with just $30 and the women weren't hurt in the attempted robbery.
"He didn't get a chance to take the register because all four of us were holding it...Yeah! Women Power!" said Kay Aimes.
Police are now seeking the public's assistance in identifying and catching the man.
