Today, my mother (61) saved a little girl high schooler from being assaulted in public. We were grocery shopping at our local grocery store and my mother noticed a man in his 50’s pulling a female cashier in for a “hug”. My mother literally stood in front of the guy and stared him down with this look of disgusted judgement. It was the most craziest standoff ever since I was worried that he would hurt her. The guy was over 6 feet and my mother was barely five feet tall. The guy told my mother that he was only getting change and tried to look for other people for support. Four other female cashiers came along with a male butcher because he was causing too much noise. My mother didn’t respond to his excuses, and he left in a fit of rage. He even told her to “F-off” and “mind her own business”.

As we got home, my mother told me that she saw the whole thing. He was paying for his groceries, and as she was giving him his change, he grabbed her hand, pulled her in, and tried to kiss her. The whole thing was so aggressive that it looked like he was trying to take a bite out of her. Luckily, she pulled back before he could get a kiss, and that’s when my mother intervened.
