Without hesitation, she fired a warning shot\u2063 at the suspects, who retaliated by shooting 17 to 20 rounds before fleeing the scene.<\/p>\n<p>Although the criminals managed to escape with some \u2062valuables, including jewelry, the courageous woman emerged \u2062unharmed.

Calvin Walker, a neighbor, commended her presence of mind, \u200dsaying, &#8220;She had the presence of mind\u2064 to reach into her \u2064nightstand and get a weapon.\u2064 And\u2064 she had it under her covers,\u200d and when\u200c she saw an opening, she fired a shot.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dave Lederer, another neighbor, was equally impressed by the victim&#8217;s cool demeanor under pressure.

People are fighting back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Supporting this sentiment, Lynn Baranco, another neighbor, expressed the community&#8217;s frustration with brazen criminals, stating, &#8220;They&#8217;re playing with their lives because all these people out here \u200care armed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, crime has been on the rise\u200b in Democrat-run cities across the nation, and \u200bOakland is no exception.

Punching me, kicking me, dragging me through the street.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She recounted how a teenage boy attempted to steal her purse and even body-slammed her \u200cduring\u2063 the attack. When he failed, a female teenage accomplice joined in the assault. Fortunately, the victim&#8217;s screams alerted her neighbors, who came to her rescue. She concluded, &#8220;I&#8217;m almost 60 years old. I&#8217;m one of the old women that just got taken down. And it&#8217;s happening everywhere.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Amidst these troubling times, the bravery and resilience of individuals\u200b like the 75-year-old woman serve as a beacon of hope.\u200c They remind us that in the face of danger, we can rise above and protect ourselves. \u2063The community of Oakland stands\u2064 united against lawlessness, sending a clear message to criminals that their reign of terror will not go unchallenged.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Woodlawn, Chicago residents blow up over illegals \u200cin the neighborhood:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They disrespect us, rob\u2062 us, harass us&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re gonna take over.
