Nude soldier foils attempted robbery
Nude soldier foils attempted robbery
A British soldier stopped an attempted robbery at his home in Manchester by tackling the would-be thieves in the nude.
Lance Corporal Wayne O'Mahoney discovered Saturday morning that three masked men had broken into his house in Salford, Greater Manchester.
When one of the perpetrators, who was armed with a knife, took the keys to his partner's new sports car, the 41-year-old smashed the window of the vehicle and struggled with the offender until he ran off.
O'Mahoney, who served in Iraq for two years, told the Manchester Evening News: "I hadn't even realised I was naked, but there were people up and down the street looking out of the windows and pointing.
"I think I gave some of them a nice surprise. Others thought I had lost it - they could just see a naked man shouting at a car."
