Orlando, FL - An armed robber thought he scored an easy target when he spotted the 79-year-old Marvin Lail, but the thug did not count on the elderly man fighting back. Lail was filling up his car at an Orlando, Fla., gas station at 7 a.m. this past Saturday when the suspect came from behind the gas pump and demanded Lail give up his wallet. Lail refused. The suspect pulled out a gun, but Lail still refused to surrender his wallet, according to a police report by Orange County Sheriff. The suspect attempted to yank Lail's wallet from his pocket and Lail struggled to hang on to his money until an employee of a nearby store came out and scared off the suspect. Lail sustained minor scuffing on his hand, and said he lost some cash, according to the police report.
