A number of criminals got more than they bargained for when they targeted shops and their brave owners.
On Tuesday, Liverpool Crown Court heard that Wayne Daniels returned to a shop on London Road armed with a knife after a row about change. However, he was fought off by the proprietor brandishing wooden poles.
Daniels is just one of many criminals who have been foiled by brave shopkeepers. In recent years, Liverpool's courts have heard about a Spar manager who wrestled a robber, a jewellery shop worker who fought back against a thief and a store worker who grabbed a knife from an attempted robber.
