Russian Girl Attacks Store Customers With A Knife, Moscow

[u/student5320]

Look at random civilians doing what cops swear is too hard to do.

[u/insanityzwolf → u/student5320]

Including a 5yo

[u/Raixurz → u/insanityzwolf]

This had me crackling

[u/Darebarsoom → u/Raixurz]

What was that kid doing?

[u/GoT43894389 → u/Darebarsoom]

Being a kid. I'm glad she was already subdued when he got close.

[u/lostinfury → u/student5320]

Oh, I don't think cops think it's hard to do. They just have a far easier method. They surgically cut tiny holes in the person from 10 feet away until the person "stops resisting." The more of them doing it, the quicker the person stops resisting. I think they call it "teamwork." You won't understand.

[u/Jolly_Schedule472 → u/lostinfury]

You don't think she would've gotten shot here if one of them had a gun? I know I'm shooting her. Fuck a teamwork, I'm not getting stabbed with a butcher knife.

[u/polo61965 → u/Jolly_Schedule472]

Yeah most credit goes to the guy who goes straight to the disarm. He knew what he was doing to stop her from wildly swinging, plus the lady who synced up with him and put the attacker on a choke hold helped a lot. But you can tell that even with that, the guy still got his hand cut by the way he held the knife to disarm the attacker. This had so much potential to have all 3 killed if the attacker had a plan going in. Good thing they don't have easy access to guns or the attacker would have started a bloodbath.

[u/RevLoveJoy → u/polo61965]

Spot on. Those people were VERY lucky. It's wildly hard to disarm a person with a knife. The only part of the weapon you can safely grasp is firmly in their grasp and to disarm them you have to get up close and personal. One lucky swing and you have a couple minutes to live without drastic medical intervention. Those folks are wildly lucky.

[u/MoistDitto → u/RevLoveJoy]

I've seen video of a guy who bled out and lost consciousness in under 7 seconds. Himself and those around him didn't really grasp how severe it was before it was too late. One little cut in your throath and you're gone.

[u/banditt2 → u/Jolly_Schedule472]

This, hitting center mass until she stops moving, people don’t realize how dangerous someone can be with a knife and just because you just put two rounds into someones chest doesn’t make them stop immediately, only guarantee in a knife fight is your gonna get cut/stabbed, in a well placed part of the body your dead in 30 seconds. Hats to these people for stepping up to disarm a public threat especially Mr. Green shirt with the Leroy Jenkins method and a rear naked lol

[u/Jolly_Schedule472 → u/banditt2]

The video of that dude stabbing people at a political rally in Germany a few weeks ago was horrifying. The one cop got stabbed in the head and died a few days after. So yeah, if anyone is sleeping on the damage that knives can do, just go and watch that.

[u/banditt2 → u/Jolly_Schedule472]

Yeah that dude buried that knife into that cops neck but you’ll still have the people shouting “but why did they have to shoot him a dozen times why couldn’t they shoot him in the leg” because your obvious to reality, a downside of the human condition is if someone wants to hurt others they will find a way.

[u/Ashley_H1985 → u/banditt2]

My bio father in full blooded Indian and I witnessed idk how many drunken knife fights but there was a time when I seen my dad get sliced and diced up n down his back and he looked like Edward Scissorhands had gotten a hold of him. Luckily we made it to the hospital in enough time n over 150 staples. My point is knives are just as dangerous as guns are and these folks handled this well.

[u/banditt2 → u/Ashley_H1985]

wow! thanks for sharing, I could only imagine going through something like that.

[u/baithammer → u/Jolly_Schedule472]

Russian police are total different story, as they don't have restrictions on use of force ...

[u/calebthebeam → u/Jolly_Schedule472]

Big fax👍

[u/Ashley_H1985 → u/Jolly_Schedule472]

Fk a teamwork 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m sorry that made me laugh but AGREED 💯💯💯💯💯💯I’m not taking any chances ima pop off before I let myself get stabbed tf

[u/ways111 → u/lostinfury]

You realize a knife can kill someone, right?

[u/ChrisDornerFanCorn3r → u/ways111]

Imagine if it was more of a sneak attack than a broadcasted wild rage, she would have probably been more successful before being taken down.

[u/Equal_Win → u/lostinfury]

Yeah I’m sure if any of these people were armed with a gun they still would have rushed this crazed knife wielding person and tried to subdue them with shopping carts and their bare hands. That surely would be the intelligent thing to do.

[u/baithammer → u/Equal_Win]

Nope, Russians are pragmatists and Russian cops look for excuses to shake down the average person to make up for the several months of no pay.

[u/Zaphanathpaneah → u/lostinfury]

Well, unless the person is behind a closed door that may or may not be locked, shooting teachers and children. Gotta find that key first.

[u/Different-Version115 → u/student5320]

You have seen just lately in Germany what happens when a cop tries this, it's not worth to risk your life over someone crazy, just shoot him and job done

[u/MRGameAndShow → u/Different-Version115]

Yep, that video was crazy. A bit of hesitation then bam. Few minutes of video and the guy is bleeding out, not pretty.

[u/Billych → u/Different-Version115]

The cop in germany tackled the wrong guy so wouldn't he be shooting the wrong guy too?

[u/sneakyjesus33 → u/student5320]

It also helped that she is tiny.

[u/UpstairsGreen6237 → u/student5320]

Once in a lifetime occurrence for random people, too many a lifetime occurrence for cops. When you are put into those situations regularly, even just a couple times over your career, statistically you have a higher and higher chance of being on the losing end. Hence why police respond the way that they do. 

[u/WhyYouKickMyDog → u/student5320]

It helps that the attacker is a very small woman. Let's be real. Size means everything. Much less people in the public are going to try and help subdue someone that is capable of picking you up and yeeting you around.

[u/jtnichol → u/student5320]

I think if I had a mess around with people like that day in and day out, I would use other tools as well.

[u/PartlyRowdy → u/student5320]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivorship_bias

[u/CitizenKing1001 → u/student5320]

Cops should carry shopping carts

[u/topkrikrakin → u/student5320]

Yeah, and at least the dude in the black shirt got cut for it

There's a reason you use ranged attacks against a melee opponent

[u/Lazy_Platypus_6365 → u/student5320]

*russian civilians. they grow up wrestling bears.

[u/neuroticmuffins → u/Lazy_Platypus_6365]

They call it, "Special military operations".

[u/misterid → u/student5320]

so bold, so brave of you to say this

[u/Brasi91Luca → u/student5320]

Ohh such a tragedy gunning down a lunatic trying to kill people with a butcher knife

[u/finkanfin → u/student5320]

Потому что это Чад Россия, а не Virgin USA.

Because this is chad Russia not Virgin USA

[u/RadenSahid → u/student5320]

Russia in a nutshell

[u/VeIorum → u/student5320]

lmao you’re delusional. imagine thinking disarming someone with a knife isn’t hard.

[u/cyrogyro527 → u/student5320]

You wanna tackle someone wielding a knife? No u don’t . So stop making believe u wouldn’t drop her if you were carrying.

[u/HeldDownTooLong → u/student5320]

That little fella just wandering into the scene like, “Hey mommy…what’s this mean girl doing?”

Thank goodness he wasn’t hurt, but it was kind of cute how he didn’t seem concerned about it.

[u/CR4ZY___PR0PH3T]

Great teamwork

[u/Pacman35503 → u/CR4ZY___PR0PH3T]

Shopping cart was IQ900 move

[u/wetbeef10 → u/Pacman35503]

It was the classic dual shopping cart approaching maneuver. Gets em every time

[u/norsurfit → u/wetbeef10]

I learned this day 2 in my local "Shopping Cart Self Defense" class

[u/wetbeef10 → u/norsurfit]

Very valuable knowledge. Can save life one day

[u/De5perad0 → u/Pacman35503]

Seriously was. Keeps enough distance they can't cut you and it's hard to get around.

[u/SeigneurDesMouches → u/Pacman35503]

I want to see that in the next Mortal Kombat!

[u/tswchristensen → u/Pacman35503]

Would’ve sucked if it was one of those you need a coin to unlock…

[u/Eastern-Mix9636 → u/Pacman35503]

This guy shops

[u/Criffless → u/Pacman35503]

It wasn't the shopping cart, look closely and someone whips an object at her head that drops her to the ground, you can see her look over like "wtf I'm trying to stab here"

[u/turd_vinegar → u/Pacman35503]

The mistake was not continuing to slam her with the cart until she lost consciousness or broke critical wielding bones.

[u/ifoundyourtoad → u/Pacman35503]

Seriously super smart. And throwing shit at her. Smart group.

[u/Ohif0n1y → u/Pacman35503]

I had the police officer for my workplace (college) tell me when I informed him about an incident in my office by my stalker to use the wheeled cart I work with as a way to force distance between me and my stalker. Good to see these folks showing how effective it can be.

[u/lemonylol → u/CR4ZY___PR0PH3T]

Yeah, surprisingly great response from the bystanders, especially the first guy who immediately grabbed the cart to keep her away and box her in.

[u/ChrisDornerFanCorn3r → u/lemonylol]

They do that with riot shields in eastern European prisons with uncooperative inmates

[u/unLtd88]

The little one was also ready to risk it.

[u/Karpaty → u/unLtd88]

Plot twist: it’s her son and sees this on a daily basis so knows how to react

[u/TheSlackJaw → u/unLtd88]

Maybe not one for you to get involved with, little man

[u/RandyMarshTegridy69 → u/unLtd88]

Only problem was the guy who had her in a headlock nearly sabotaged everyone. You don’t just hold her in that position, you choke her to sleep. Could have ended way faster.

I get that he maybe didn’t know how but cmon man just squeeze, she still holding that knife.

[u/Duhcisive]

Holy shit, is there a follow story or context for this?

Big props to the customers for absolutely jumping straight into action as soon as she fell, & hope the dude who grabbed that knife didn’t get cut too badly.

[u/wegqg → u/Duhcisive]

He could have bent her wrist forward instead, everyone should learn that trick.

[u/wetbeef10 → u/wegqg]

Also pressing your thumb as hard as you can into the inside of the wrist where the arteries meet your palm will make them drop anything

[u/wegqg → u/wetbeef10]

I just tried it on myself, ow.

Edit: I tried it on myself when gripping a handle as hard as i can, and I can't press hard enough myself that it loosens my grip, with either hand, it just hurts.

[u/CompE-or-no-E → u/[deleted]]

Did you see what he said? He said it doesn't work, and just hurts.

[u/No_Size_1765 → u/[deleted]]

Do you have a link of proper use?

[u/wetbeef10 → u/wegqg]

Its not supposed to hurt lol it just deadens your hand for a second

[u/ifoundyourtoad → u/wegqg]

Best way to remove grip is to try and your four fingers into the meet of the thumb and the. Press your thumb into the back of their hand while twisting and creating distance.

It’s a form of jiujitsu, but when they are holding a knife or object it’s hard. Besides that honestly breaking the hand somehow is the best and safest way.

[u/DroidLord → u/wetbeef10]

Pain is the greatest motivator. The area between the thumb and the index finger is also a good spot.

[u/wetbeef10 → u/DroidLord]

Absolutely that actually does hurt if done right

[u/chinto30 → u/wetbeef10]

Or bend back the little finger and it will force your hand to open no matter what.

[u/migvelio → u/wetbeef10]

Also, putting his thumb up her asshole should have made her drop the knife. If it works on pitbulls it works on people.

[u/vassman86 → u/wegqg]

The fellow who had his arm around her neck should have rear-naked choked her to subdue her. She really didn't want to give up that knife

[u/Tea_and_crumpets_392 → u/Duhcisive]

Everyone too busy spewing shitty "jokes" and references.

[u/Yuri-Turned → u/[deleted]]

the "guns don't kill people" crowd is real quiet on this one

[u/BlueSonjo → u/[deleted]]

Yes but if there were good men with guns in that store they could have started shooting and the knife would have dropped faster, along with 2 people and that kid.

[u/V_es → u/[deleted]]

You can’t get a pistol for lethal ammo (only traumatic that shoots rubber bullets) and semi automatic assault rifle in Russia. Everything else you can buy.

[u/brewedtealeaf122 → u/[deleted]]

with a bump stock

Lol

[u/nerojt → u/[deleted]]

People that know things know that aimed fire is more deadly.

[u/UnhappyLibrary1120 → u/[deleted]]

And if she had a bomb…

[u/Moggy-Man]

Ah yes, a different take on 'the trolley problem'.

[u/SeigneurDesMouches → u/Moggy-Man]

More of the litmus test with a shopping cart

[u/RequirementGlum177]

Damn. Those people handled that well. It’s like they were like “oh god, another one?”

[u/wetbeef10 → u/RequirementGlum177]

Fuck man thats the fourth one this week in this store

[u/nilansh23]

The little kid is like let me help restraining her but her mom pull him away 😆😆😆

[u/Fast-Hold-649]

the guy in flip flops lol - but really he knows the best thing to do is start chucking shit at the attacker, attack them with random everyday objects like youre I am Legend, whatever it takes. Start throwing chairs which are large unruly objects that will rattle even the attcker trying to move away from it. it can buy you seconds that mean life or death.

[u/SeigneurDesMouches → u/Fast-Hold-649]

It's the grey shirt that tossed a grocery basket to her head

[u/soulkeyy → u/SeigneurDesMouches]

That headshot was the turning point in the battle imo

[u/MrStef85]

She will be drafted now.

[u/ChrisDornerFanCorn3r → u/MrStef85]

So will the helpful toddler

[u/dohboy420]

Someone give it to me straight… have I been allowed to walk around with a fanny pack as a shirt this whole time?!

[u/VALTIELENTINE → u/dohboy420]

In russia? probably

[u/Morphius79]

I'd call that Putin' her down

[u/wetbeef10 → u/Morphius79]

Stahp

[u/bmanley620 → u/wetbeef10]

Nobody else can come up with a response yet? Quit Stalin

[u/DwarfKevin]

Why is the one guy shirtless

[u/ThatDudeFromRF → u/DwarfKevin]

It's been pretty hot in Moscow these last few months

[u/mshkaji]

Its like these random people knew what to expect and once shit went down they were all in sync

[u/Mysterious_Panda7780]

Bottle to the head as t 0:31 had her dazed and confused.

[u/blac_sheep90 → u/Mysterious_Panda7780]

That bottle took the fight outta her, rocked her to a system reset lol.

[u/SufficientSir2965]

God damn! That bottle thrown to her head followed by her falling and hitting her head on the cart was superb!!! Got her knocked stupid for a second there!

[u/DroidLord]

Insanely impressive teamwork, everyone played an important part. That lady at the start blocked the door so the girl couldn't get out. Used the shopping carts to close some distance and block her in. The bag throw to distract the girl. The headlock and the arm grab at the same time. Could have gone a lot worse.

[u/hankbaumbach → u/DroidLord]

That lady at the start blocked the door so the girl couldn't get out.

I'm in two minds on this one as she also locked everyone else in there with the knife wielding maniac.

[u/Fresh_Babyy]

Lmao notice how the kid rushes to the scene to join the fight, somehow shows up and then just freezes because even he didn't expect to make it all the way till there.

[u/HuipDjons]

That first can throw knocked her silly. Very good aim.

[u/Kanalratt]

I can fix her

[u/irrealewunsche]

Now do that to Putin.

[u/BrainWrex]

Was hoping to see a good old fashion mudhole stomp from everyone to her into the ground.

[u/Dantespawn666]

This is an example to the Murikans that say that gun control does nothing since people still have knives to attack with... If the girl had a gun, this would've ended in a blood bath.

[u/Rude_Employ5367]

You know it's Russia when a 5 year old jumps into the knife fight

[u/999oneaboveall]

Handling terror with ease

[u/PopeKevin45]

She'll probably get less of a sentence than the 15 year old who criticized Putin.

[u/Ace_on_the_Turn]

Anything can be a weapon. Carts and whatever the guy winged at her.

[u/mohishunder]

First guy was brave, and smart.

Send him to the front!

[u/technotime]

Shopping cart to the shin definitely hurt.

[u/notondope]

Big props at the person who threw the can at her head and caused her to fall. Homie emptied his basket and ultimately threw the basket at her too lol

Great team work!

[u/Canonballran]

Never bring a knife to a trolley fight

[u/Bean_Storm]

Nice job! Now get to the frontlines the grinder needs more meat

[u/FrendChicken]

Bro Jackie Chaned that cart towards her.

[u/_equestrienne_]

Man. Bold. Best way to win a knife fight is by 100m.

[u/snowfox_my]

Got to give it to that kid, bravely charging in to help.

[u/StoneyMalon3y]

Damn the little kid wanted smoke too!!

[u/InterrogativePterion]

Awesome teamwork! The older lady locked her in, and the guys managed to disarm her. Pretty intense with the knife so close to them.

Once you commit, then there’s no turning back until job done. Well done boys

[u/nathgilson]

russian girls...

[u/Badger-Roy]

Even the little kid was trying to get involved.

[u/robo-dragon]

Fantastic quick work by those civilians who restrained and disarmed her! Took care of a dangerous situation before authorities arrived.

[u/letsgetthisbread2812]

Whats the story

[u/kitjen]

It's a good job they were willing to work together in battling the threat here, because that woman at the beginning got herself to safety and then made sure everyone else was trapped with the danger.

[u/Lumpy_Staff_2372]

Beautiful execution of using the carts to keep distance while trapping them against the wall. Perfection. Love to see it.

[u/taco_swag]

Imagine being surrounded by a pack of shopping carts

[u/ElMemeKing]

looks like the avengers taking the infinity gauntlet from Thanos lmaoooo

[u/Enough-Staff-2976]

Easier way to disarm her is using shopping carts to block her and using can goods to pelt her with.

[u/SeaWolf24]

That many people to just throw a dr. Pepper at her head

[u/readitreddit240]

Anyone know if there's a news article about it?

[u/auslad9421]

Russian girl attempts to attack store customers

[u/TheQuimmReaper]

Fuck Russia

[u/kilojulietx]

Heroes

[u/HandyMan131]

So THATS why IKEA’s shopping carts have have those annoying rear swivel wheels. So you can use them to effectively defend yourself against a knife wielding attacker!

[u/Right_Place_8442]

i would take that opportunity to punch her in liver as hard as i can to " stop her " .

[u/deadlygr8ful]

From the grocery line to the front lines!

[u/Many_Government_7448]

Deport that terrorist.

[u/Icy_Cat4821]

Thank god she didn't have a gun, she would have probably shot so many people and it would have been alot harder to subdue her. Kudos to all those people stopping her and protecting innocents from her.

[u/CameronsParadise]

That Australian guy needs to commentate this.

DESTINATION FUCKED

[u/Mindless-Income3292]

I heard carts to the face is super effective.

[u/outtayoleeg]

Who would've thought there are Russian girls in Moscow

[u/Mitcheltree86]

Choke her out

[u/Every_Tap8117]

Sorry but when 1 guy secured the knife, why didnt the other guy punch her as hard as he could straight in your face?

[u/Pitiful-Tutor-3214]

Does he reach into the knife with his bare hand? Everything was under control and the lady was restrained by several people, he didn't have to do that🙈

[u/NaoPb]

Well, we know one thing for sure. It's not Reese.

[u/k815]

And no ass-kicking? I want equality.

[u/warpfield]

"You bastards took the last of the Orange Citrus slushee, you will all pay."

[u/pwisaab]

Knock her out. Some punches will be cool

[u/trife_squad]

@0.19 what was that kid doing LOL

[u/earthgarden]

That hand cart to the head was especially satisfying

[u/your_actual_life]

Guns for show, knives for a pro.

[u/heels_on_fire]

Vodka, one hell of a drink!

[u/merlin8922g]

There's always a slightly out of shape shirtless guy sporting one of those cross body satchel type things, denim shorts and sliders in any video from Russia.

Why is that?

[u/nobodyuknow99]

In Soviet Russia victim stabs you

[u/sleebyeepy]

i can fix her

[u/Silent-carcinogen]

If you have a sword they will shoot you with arrows.

[u/Jack_Johnson_Trades]

I'm just here for the dude wearing a fanny pack as a shirt.

[u/knowledgebass]

That's it! One star Yelp review...

[u/Admirable_Let_441]

Would’ve whooped her ass frfr knocked her ass out that’s the day you hit a woman and I dnt hit women but that would be the day it went down

[u/Doodleschmidt]

Why did he stop ramming her with the cart. Best part of the video. Now I'll have to put it on loop.

[u/612god]

That kid was like “fuck that let me get some”

[u/Eric-who]

2 mistakes were made. The person who got her in a headlock needed to do an ACTUAL headlock and choke her to sleep so she can drop the knife, and if that didnt work, someone should have knocked her out while she was in the headlock, dont freakin try to grab the knife

[u/NoArtist2418]

The baby tryna get in on the action 😭🙏

[u/icant_helpyou]

Dude launches 2 beer cans at her head, 1st one dazes her then she gets a face full of shopping basket! Well played General Public

[u/Rebuild6190]

This just proves the old saying, "It takes a good guy with a gun shirtless Russian in sandals to handle a girl with a knife.

[u/LocoPinocchio_]

Yooo that little kid was ready to GO LMAO

[u/94deejayripley]

its like a dance

[u/not_likely_today]

kids are so dumb sometimes lol

[u/JasonBaconStrips]

Can't use that in England, we have ours outside. We need trolleys indoors.

[u/Electronic-Tank4256]

At that point the second guy just needs to press his thumbs into her eye balls. She will let go quickly.

[u/Grand-Coconut-7147]

I'm dating one bro

[u/Many-Tension-2431]

Snap her arm at the elbow. She’ll probably drop it.

[u/Large-Measurement776]

Nice neighborhood.

[u/Spoopy_Jofuxy]

That guy throwing a backpack on her face was on point

[u/macgirthy]

The guy that put her in a headlock should have choked her ass out.

[u/ProfessorDamselfly]

Russian woman requires 4 grown up men to tackle her OMG!

[u/Fluffy_Exercise4276]

As an American if this was in America she would have been gunned down by cops sadly

[u/Snoo69116]

Oof glad I wasn't there

[u/Hot-Character7511]

The kids was well into throwing down if needed

[u/JohnnyBprime21]

Even the baby was tryna get some smoke lol…they teach em young in Russia I like

[u/mouthful_quest]

This is what happens when you bring a knife to a trolley fight

[u/Ok_Guitar_7566]

Have you ever seen someone being so useless?

[u/H1Eagle]

These people are insane and frankly extremely lucky, if somebody starts swinging a knife, don't be a hero and just run until the police arrive, any of these "heroes" could have been stabbed in an artery and died right there

[u/Strange_Lynx_8635]

Luckily she had the coordination of a baby giraffe on ice skates.

[u/Affectionate-Ant-894]

Anyone got a news article link? Can’t find this anywhere but here and on a YouTube short video.
