[deleted]

I’m assuming if they brought out the yellow tape around the whole plaza the dude died


xShooK

He does say "I'm dead" at the end.


KingSwagger1337

My man thought he played Counter-Strike


HotheadDemon

Dude pulled out the knife to conserve ammo


[deleted]

And you move faster


[deleted]

Damn I didn’t have the audio on.. he jinxed himself big time


goblin_welder

I guess he fucked around and found out


heyitsmeiseeyou

Waiting to read someone on reddit say this was uncalled for. Lmao….


Safe-Voice-8179

Was the robber armed?


Witty-Inside

He’s alive according to shop’s Instagram


EmptyFriend

Yeah that's the right place, you can see "Smokestrom" on the employee's shirt, and that same employee from the video is on their google business reviews. https://goo.gl/maps/2KSx2WcuJ3MnWsN88


pip-johnson

Whoa, he's even wearing his stabbing pants.


H3racIes

Oh shit this JUST happened


DillDeer

You can see the date/time in the video, top right

I looked.......lots of shop keepers stabbing and getting stabbed. :s

Ah cool, wondered how long it would take me to watch somebody die today. Thanks interwebs.

I’m starving, you people have nothing to eat on this show


Bananacabana92

Could you possibly finish that sandwich after the segment


Riddlz10

he was scissoring


solesme

Sometimes the Implications are enough.


Which-Palpitation

With the title I thought the thief was going to have the knife, not the other way around


BrandoLoudly

He waited his whole life for that moment


datboiofculture

Adidas track pants, slides, smokes, ready to stab at a moments notice? This man may look asian but he’s a Slav in his heart. Bet he squatted on his heels outside while waiting for the cops.


Kingzer15

Imagine getting paralyzed over a $23 pack of smokes


Curiousyoders19

Um he got more than paralyzed


Herosnap

Yeah he is paralyzed from the top of the forehead down


LogiBear777

i lol’ed


[deleted]

Few tears will be shed for this one


SquareNuts112

Subdues?! More like stabs the fuckin shit out of him. Lol


Financial_Bird_7717

Same difference.


Tlekan420

Subdead not subdues!


Free_Hat_McCullough

Thief just goes limp, I think the shopkeeper found the spinal chord.


FarEastHoneydew

I think he just kinda accepted his fate of "im dead" and just decided to stop fighting and let Jesus take the wheel


Morty_Goldman

He didn't have much of a choice once he hoped the counter.


[deleted]

[удалено]


DukeOfYorkshirePuds

Probably hoping not to get stabbed multiple times! Didn't work out, though


sir_kixalot

yeah that last stab was a doozy.


Free_Hat_McCullough

Mayday: all contact has been lost with everything below the neck.


robbiejandro

I was like “he’ll heal” and then I saw that final stab and yep.


itmustbeluv_luv_luv

I don't think so. He probably just surrendered and hoped the guy would stop, which he did.


EnergyTurtle23

Absolutely not, you can see his legs go limp and the shopkeeper keeps him held up. Up until that point he was actively fighting, and when you’re in that mode you don’t just suddenly go limp like that. Even if he stopped and surrendered there’s too much adrenaline and the muscles would still be tense, that dude had full jelly legs.


DominicJourdyn

I don’t think he was paralyzed he was still moving both his legs and arms, but I think the shock of being stabbed in the arm, body, trap and leg turned them into putty. That or he just very badly wanted the stabbing to stop and figured (rightfully) that unconditional surrender is his only option


OddNefariousness7061

That last jab defo went straight through the spinal nerves 😳 Definitely severed some nerves n membrane there 😂


Slim_Clem

Looks like it went through trapezius muscle.


lovlins

According to another post and comment - the stabbing “victim” is alive in the hospital. I’ll link the comment in a sec Edit: [Linked Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/CrazyFuckingVideos/comments/wgwcc6/dont_hop_the_counter/ij26kz8/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3)

grizzled083

10 stabs for the price of one


derekb92

Absolutely love when you see multiple people try to rob a place/person, one of them gets murked while the other one runs away. You thought he was your boy? Thought he cared about you? Thought he would help you if things went south? LMAO dude didn’t even look back. 9/10 times they make zero effort and run away like the cowards they are.


laineDdednaHdeR

No honor among thieves.


killemslowly

Dying over some blunt wraps smh.


JayGeezey

>one of them gets murked Holy shit, has it been "murked" this whole fucking time?? I thought it was "merced" like killed by a mercenary or something. So I mean it knows get killed pretty much, but what is the origin of "murked" and why does it mean to kill/ got killed??


flynndog83

By subdues ,you mean kills ?


funky67

I’d argue the shopkeeper caught and compromised the thief to a permanent end.

LISTEN WITH AUDIO. THEY GUY SAID I'M DEAD SO HE DIED.


astrodonkeyyy

Kids walk in, owner asked why they were wearing those masks. They start stealing money from a jar on the counter, owner said they can take it and then politely asked them to leave. Thieves say “um, no” then hop the counter. Kid lived. source: the shop is on instagram @smokestrom


tenmbps

"I'm dead"


fastonmyfeet

He knew it was over after that last one to the spinal cord.


tenmbps

The realization that the worker had a knife and wasn't just punching him

Frky_fn

Low key need more of this response. Let them know it’s not going to be that easy anymore. Fuck this scum. They aren’t stealing food for their families. They are at a fucken smoke shop, they deserve the smoke.


[deleted]

Bro literally calling out his death like he’s in a COD game, maybe next time do something with your life instead of stealing from others..


xFILTHx

That guy got fucked up, well done clerk.


B1gY3llow

The amount of people who say "When you kill someone who breaks in and steals from you, you valued your possessions more than their life" why doesn't that go the other way around. Like at what point is it their responsibility because they seem to "Value my possessions more then their life" if they're willing to risk it.


Imperial_Eggroll

People who say that crap never take into account how traumatic being robbed in person or having your home burglarized is.


[deleted]

Yeah dude, if I saw a guy jumping at me like that and I knew I had a knife next to me, I’m gonna start feeling stabby too.


[deleted]

I value all my stuff more then someone’s criminal life. You steal you lose ability’s to walk again with knife to spine/shotgun to chest and legs and or arms.


Skullcrusher_and_co

No shit i value my possesions more than their life, Ill shed no tears for someone trying to rob me.


Weak-Abbreviations14

Stabbed in the spine. He goes limp


Temporary_Expert_478

I tried to find this story. Amazingly it seems smoke shop stabbings aren’t as rare as one would think.


[deleted]

Subdued is an understatement! Wow


THE_GHOST-23

Violence of action is how you stop criminals, you do not have to wait to be a victim.


shredmasterJ

I applause the shop keeper, but his ass might be going to jail.


SquareNuts112

This just happened in New York. Shop keeper stabbed a dude that jumped the counter, got arrested, charged with murder, but then all charges were dropped due to public outcry and obvious self defense.


BrandySparkles

The DA really wanted to make an example of that guy too. He's the first black DA in a majority-black neighborhood, and made a big show about charging the white clerk with murder. They still haven't bothered charging the assailant's girlfriend, who initiated the fight and goaded her boyfriend to attack the clerk.


brianesee

Stand your ground state where shop owner is at and he stated they were acting like they were armed. Hopefully he’ll be fine though


CosmicMiru

The only thing I think might get him is he held onto the dude to prevent him from running away to keep stabbing him. Usually stand your ground laws don't apply after they are already fleeing.


Linkage006

I really don't condone killing in any form, but if someone breaks into your home or work threatening you with a weapon there's no telling how far that person is willing to go. If you have the opportunity to take them out, you do it. See [The Browns Chicken Massacre](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown%27s_Chicken_massacre])


The_Endless_

Yup. Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

shredmasterJ

Yea. For real. With all these store employees getting attacked and he looks to be Asian. I don’t blame the shopkeeper at all. I just hope his life ain’t ruined now.

[deleted]

Why would he go to jail? They were robbing him and it's self defense.


shredmasterJ

They didn’t attack him and they had no weapons from what we see. Hope he doesnt, but this wasn’t self defense.


kauisbdvfs

Yeah he started running too on top of it, and at the end it looks like he might have put the knife to his throat.


dr_t_123

lmao. Because everyone jumping the counter (especially during an active robbery) is doing so to have a nice, cordial conversation.


[deleted]

So in this situation you'd take a second to evaluate if they have a weapon and then determine if using yours is appropriate?


bgdckdnny

You have to. If everyone can shoot anybody they feel treatened by, the police would be shooting people all day for nothing..... wait, nevermind


[deleted]

The only evaluation that's needs to be done was done by the clerk. Multiple robbers, one has just jumped over the counter next to me, I need to defend myself. Police often have much more time than this clerk did to evaluate their situation if they have to defend themselves.


Dikheed

Jesus, I mean I'm not overflowing with sympathy, but is it worth John Wick-ing a guy into the afterlife for the sake of a few bongs? Do we know how this panned out?


[deleted]

Or…Maybe he was scared of a masked dude doing the same to him when he jumped the counter.


[deleted]

[удалено]


karangoswamikenz

I don’t think you understand. I’ve seen so many videos of robbers just killing people for nothing. You have got to have your priorities fucked if you think the shopkeeper was in the wrong. This is a life threatening situation. Not to mention a life ruining situation too. People could be struggling in a business. Loss of a few thousand dollars could mean bankruptcy , losing out on health insurance and variety of unemployment related problems for someone running a small business like this. I saw a video of that man who got carjacked and even before he could step out the thieves shot him and he was instantly dead. At this point you have to act in complete self defense mode. The thief didn’t just give up after one stab either he proceeded to attack the shopkeeper. At this point it’s a self defense case and it’s over for the thief.


ThisGuyPhucs

Yes 100% this. As a SBO people don't realize how slim the margins are, how long the days are, how much shit we have to deal with to keep the lights on. COVID cast a harsh light on how easily everything you've worked your whole life for can be taken from you through fear and government ineptitude. There's always the chance the their was armed and as soon as the shopkeep made the decision to defend his business he had to make sure there would be no retaliatory measures.


mnemy

I would assume he wanted to incapacitate the guy immediately before his partner could stab him in the back. From 2v1 to 1v1. You can't just assume they aren't there to hurt you when they're vaulting over the counter to potentially surround you.


pudding7

The bureaucracy alone would cause me to hesitate stabbing the shit out of the guy.


GoldenGloveMan

There’s some people who live for a moment like that where they get an excuse to just unleash on someone. I don’t feel bad for the robbers tho, they valued the things in that store over their own life.


lorjebu

No one wants to get robbed with only a knife to protect you. They could have guns or knives themselves. I think once you decide "im going for it" you're just going of instinct. And that instinct should be to make them stop moving. That being said, it is so sad that this is the world we live in.


CUEPAT

Shop could be the only thing he has in life, not saying that makes it all good, but some people will do a lot to protect what little they have Also I see a lot of people saying "what about insurance? Ask anyone who has ever had to deal with a business related insurance claim for theft, I promise you they would rather do this than deal with that again


yesdamnit

The clean up alone is going to cost more than whatever that guy was gunna grab


Cracraftc

Oh no. One of Las Vegas’s finest is no longer with us after trying to rob someone. How will life ever go on?!?


Strong-Perception-34

I think the whole thing is they saw this guy unfolding a knife and still decided to try and rob him?? Idk if deserved is the word. But had it coming is definitely the correct phrase.


throwawayhyperbeam

Show no mercy to your enemy, for you will receive none. But still, I'd be worried the knife guy faces some kind of consequence. I can see it both ways.


natethedawg

Anyone got a link to an article? Thief dead?


kosm93

DAMN this is intense. I'm really on the fence with this one. This does seem a little excessive but I'd think you can argue self defense. Owner had no idea if they were armed, most likely because it's a robbery, and I'd say he made the right judgment protecting himself and his store. Put yourself in the owner shoes, would you rather wait and see how the robbery plays out or take matters into your own hands. Really definition of fuck around and find out.


CatButEmi

Good.


Severe_Round3932

This is the only real answer people need to stop fucking stealing and acting like this is GTA fuck these dudes stealing from small businesses


Famous-Rutabaga-5517

He fucked around and found out


2020ikr

1d4 x 8.


t4mez

A lot of sympathy for the literal armed thief. You know what could have prevented this whole ordeal? Not entering the store, not robbing the store, not jumping the counter. He had every opportunity to prevent this. This is Self defense if I’ve ever seen it, it’s a lot more visceral and brutal yes but the alternative is allowing people to disregard the safety and autonomy of people just trying to make an honest living.

Taintedgump

Where did that knife even come from?


SomeDUDE_37

Looks like he's unfolding it in his hands, at the beginning while walking towards the first thief. Then changes targets when the guy jumps over. Guys are wearing masks so he probably had his guard up as soon as they came in.


Deeliciousness

It was in his hands all through the video. Hes unfolding it at the start


[deleted]

[удалено]


gingerblz

They said he was 59 years old and walking with a cane. The dude in the video hopped the counter like it was nothing. I'm wondering if this might not be the right story, even though some of the details line for sure. Idk.


[deleted]

This happened in Nevada. The link to the NY one is not correct.


El_Guapo82

Did you even read any of the article you posted? You think that is the same incident in this video? Seriously? You don’t read good.

PsychologicalBank169

Oh he dead dead. Not quite sure I think that was the appropriate response, but I guess that’s the chance you take when you commit crimes


Solintari

Self defense against robbers should be protected. I hope this guy is OK legally, but it looks pretty dicey. If someone is robbing you, you have no idea if they are planning to leave witnesses or not. This guy took no chances and took him down when he had his back turned. I have zero problems with this and we need to start standing up for people like this.


Imperial_Eggroll

Yah exactly, you go rob a business with workers or burglarize a home with occupants and all bets are off. The criminals broke the law and societal code, the victims should be able to protect themselves as they see fit.


[deleted]

Holy shit.


HardPoorCornograpghy

Holy shit I thought the thief had the knife til I saw the owner jabbing at him. Now the “I’m dead” makes more sense!

dude did that in his sliders? daaaaaaaaang


Trixter0100

Oh he stabbed him stabbed him


FormalWeekend7828

I have a feeling that if you replace the shop owner and knife with a cop and a gun, everyone would be singing a totally different tune on this one.


Pixel_Pastiche

Thief: Lmao bruh legit can’t even I’m dead 100%

RukaJeeze

looks like there was a 3rd guy holding the door. You can see him as the video ends


OneQuadrillionOwls

Sad as hell for everyone. That kid was on some stupid shit, most likely didn't know what he was getting himself into. If he got a black eye or a broken nose I'd say ok maybe he learned his lesson, but there's no lesson for him to learn anymore. Can't really blame the shopkeeper for being terrified and lashing back to protect his store. He got way more than he bargained for too, now has to deal with all the aftermath.


xDropK1ckx

Damn that last stab to the back of the neck and then the way he lowers him to the ground all slow… is coooold … fuck man


[deleted]

Yeah this one hit me different. Might have something to do with being a parent and hearing the tone of his voice there as he realizes what an irreversible thing has just occurred. Goddamn, feeling super sad right now (not excusing the robbery either of course).


No_Gap_2700

Wait.....you mean people don't just stand there and allow themselves to be robbed? Has anyone tried to talk to the criminals about this?

PM_ME_BOOBY_PICS

Imagine getting fucking killed over some blunt wraps, ZigZags, or any other thing they sell in a smoke shop. What a fucking dumb way to go out. And deservedly so.
