A gun-carrying grandmother in Milwaukee foiled an attempted robbery when she pulled a firearm on the suspect as he grabbed for her grocery store cash register.

Ernestine Aldana, 48, was behind the counter at the San Ignacio Market when a man in a dark hat pulled a knife on her and attempted to rob the store register, police said. Aldana pulled a handgun from behind the counter on the man, causing him to flee.

"All I remember is being scared," Aldana told ABC News. "I believe if I would have had my finger on the trigger I would have shot, thank god it actually didn't come to that, everybody thinks it's easy to pick up a gun and shoot someone, it's really not."

Aldana said she was thinking about firing, but by then the suspect had already had turned to flee.

Good on her but she needs some training with that weapon. Never waive a gun in any assailants face unless your strong enough to fend them off if they decide to take it from you. Look how she point over the counter.
