This happened in Russia, and she was 19 years old. Russia is up towards the top of the list with the most stabbing-related deaths in the world per 100k people.

“Voskresensk, Moscow region, a 19-year-old girl grabbed a knife from the counter and attacked the customers, the press service of the Moscow region department of the Investigative Committee (IC) reported on June 18 in its Telegram channel.

The girl’s motives have not yet been established. She failed to injure anyone – even before the police arrived, the girl was subdued and held by several men. One of them hit the attacker in the head with a well-aimed throw with a grocery basket, the Investigative Committee noted.

According to the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Moscow Region, the incident occurred after a conflict between the girl and store employees.

In England, the government heavily restricts guns and knives. Last year, 49,489 offenses involved a knife or sharp object in England and Wales; almost 13,000 were in London.

The Firearms (Amendment) Act 1997 essentially banned private ownership of handguns in the United Kingdom, but criminals are criminals, and they’ll still figure out ways to commit crimes and hurt people.

You can use all kinds of things to defend yourself, like a fire extinguisher, maybe a broom handle, and even a shopping cart in this incident.

Fortunately, the US has the Second Amendment, and you can carry a firearm for self-defense in most of the country.

Sometimes, all it takes is for one person to step up, and others will follow.
