Thursday night in north Charlotte a man threatened to kidnap a woman and she ran in to a nearby Karate Dojo. Luckily, the suspect came out of the dojo on a stretcher due to his tangle with head instructor Randall Ephraim.

I love it!!!!!

According to one witness:
"Everybody was kung-fu fighting, Those kicks were fast as lightning.
In fact it was a little bit frightening, but the Instructor fought with expert timing".

Apparently the perpetrator was high on drugs when he did this. Foolish, foolish man...

Good for the instructor to take care of the matter until the law arrived.
