20 vs. 1: Anaheim Jewelry Store Owner Fires a Single Shot, Sends Smash‑and‑Grab Crew Running
Outnumbered twenty to one, an Anaheim jewelry store owner faced a fast‑moving smash‑and‑grab crew armed with sledgehammers and pickaxes. One deliberate shot into bulletproof glass was all it took to send them running.
On July 17th, just before closing time, a jewelry store owner in Anaheim, California, found himself outnumbered twenty to one.
Surveillance footage shows multiple cars pulling up outside Alhambra Jewelry. Around twenty masked suspects jump out, armed with sledgehammers and pickaxes, and rush the storefront. They immediately begin striking the glass in an attempt to force their way inside.
Inside the store, employees can be seen retreating to a back area. The footage cuts, then picks up with the owner positioned in the doorway leading from the back—handgun in hand. He knows the front windows are bulletproof. He takes a single, deliberate shot into the glass.
The bullet stops cold. But the sound and shock are enough to send all twenty suspects scrambling back to their vehicles.
