A crowd of 50 watched but only he had the guts to tackle raiders
2008
Overview
Gabrielle Henry, manager of WT Spa in the street, said: \"I saw this old guy go past and push one of them over. He grabbed his balaclava and shouted 'I've got your DNA'. There must have been about 40 to 50 people watching but he was the only one who thought, 'I'm not putting up with this'.\" After the tackle Mr [William Grove] merely smiled at the crowd before walking to a nearby stop and boarding a bus. Tony O'Neill, caretaker of the development, said: \"He is a great guy but very modest.\" The story prompted much online debate. One reader, Tony D, wrote: \"Well done to the elderly warrior. I'm guessing he knows more about real bravery than most of the watching crowd put together.\" .. .. Do you know Mr Grove? Call our news desk on 020 7938 7161..
