Bradenton, Florida resident David West was just trying to make Valentine’s Day tolerable for his girlfriend when she was working behind the counter at a Walgreens pharmacy, when a would-be robber named David Nemeth attempted to stick-up the place in the middle of the afternoon and demanded oxycodone.
The problem for Nemeth, though, was that West just happened to be a trained fighter, and when he heard Nemeth threaten his girlfriend saying he had a gun, he sprung into action, pulling the criminal’s shirt over his head and landing some heavy shots while waiting for police to arrive at the scene.
Although it turned out that Nemeth didn’t even have a gun and was just bluffing, West still is being commended by police for his help.
For his part, not only is Nemeth facing one count of armed robbery, but this is what his face looked like after the confrontation.
.
Maybe he will get that oxycodone after all.
