A fearless shopkeeper managed to fight off three knife-wielding raiders in his shop - using a broom handle.
Selliah Vasanthan used the make-shift weapon to tackle masked thugs at his Best-one convenience store in Birmingham.
Birmingham Live reports that police are now hunting the gang, who are being linked to a carjacking and another shop robbery.
The attack took place while Mr Vasanthan's 13-year-old son Mithunan was also in the shop - and was captured on CCTV, which can be viewed below.
Despite the robbers wielding huge hunting knives Mr Vasanthan chased them out with a broom handle during the terrifying raid at 12pm on November 1.
