He Allegedly Put Knife to Texas Grandma’s Neck — Then His ‘Eyes Got Big’ at Her Next Nine Words

A 74-year-old grandmother in Fort Worth, Texas, left a would-be robber’s eyes “big” as the man nearly lost his life trying to hold her up with a knife on Monday.

While Jewell Turner sat in her minivan outside her doctor’s office, she said a man approached her and tapped on the driver’s side window. The grandma said she offered the man directions when he inquired — but she had no idea what he really had planned.

“Never thought that when I turned my head that that young man would stick a knife to my throat,” she told NBC DFW.

The suspect then reportedly threatened, “I don’t want to hurt you, but I want your money. And I will hurt you if I have to.”
