Have-a-go-hero sends knife-wielding robbers packing

This is the shocking moment a have-a-go-hero shopkeeper fought off three knife-wielding robbers - with a BROOM HANDLE. Selliah Vasanthan, 42, sent the trio of thugs packing using the makeshift weapon after they stormed into his store armed with large blades and demanded cash. Dramatic footage captured the moment the brave shop worker stood up to the robbers and sent them fleeing empty handed at around 12pm last Thursday (1/11). The dad-of-two then chased the balaclava-clad yobs out of the Best-one convenience store, in Castle Vale, Birmingham, before they made their escape on bikes.
