A FEARLESS shopkeeper and his son took on two robbers armed with a knife and gun — and won.
The brave pair were captured on CCTV confronting the thugs and throwing them out of their store.



The pair are seen calmly entering the convenience store in Finsbury Park, north London, before one pulls out a gun and places it to the temple of the shopkeeper's head.

His accomplice, armed with a knife, walks around around the back of the counter as the 46-year-old shopkeeper and the gunman begin to struggle.

The son, 25, who is seen standing on the shop-side of the counter, joins the fight and starts trying to shove the gunman out of the shop, tearing at his clothing as he is pistol-whipped.

As they get to the doorway the shopkeeper bravely turns his attention to the accomplice.

In the scuffle, they tumble back away from the door and the knifeman repeatedly attempts to stab him before the gunman comes back into the shop to rescue his pal.

All four are then seen wrestling with each other in the doorway during the raid on December 21.

The fight continued briefly outside before the assailants, both in their 20s, ran off.

Amazingly both of the shop men escaped with only cuts and bruises.

The Gonca supermarket was left a wreck after the incident, but the late night raiders left empty-handed.

Cops have linked the raid to one at another shop TEN minutes earlier in which the thieves escaped with £300 in cash.

Detective Constable Dawn Bolitho, from Finchley Flying Squad, said: "These are clearly men who are fully prepared to use violence and we would urge anyone with information to please contact us as soon as possible.

"The second suspect wore distinctive clothing and if you recognise it please come forward."

Damn, they were lucky.

That was prbably a fake gun otherwise I'm sure the guy had all the opportunity to use it. Either way, foolishly lucky is right.
