A kind-hearted stranger who fought off a thug that he saw assaulting a terrified mother in the street with her three kids said he just did 'what any decent person would do'. Jason Blake had his fingernail bitten off during the brawl which may never grow back after he pinned the man attacking the innocent family down to the ground.
The heroic 34-year-old was entering an Asda car park in Grimsby on December 10 with a friend when he spotted a man 'randomly' run up to the woman and her three children and start 'screaming' at her. The Good Samaritan said he saw the man throw the woman on the ground and punch her in the face as he attempted to rob her of her phone and handbag, Grimsby Telegraph reports.
The horrified stranger then watched the attacker push and punch her child, aged around eight, after he tried to protect his mother. Humberside Police say they are aware of the incident on Holles Street and are investigating the assault of the woman who was left with facial injuries.
