Good morning everybody, we start the day today with the story of a brave disabled woman who was determined not to just become a victim of crime without defending herself. Marion Pedersen has described the terrifying moment when she fought off a gang of hooded thieves who had broken in to her sheltered housing flat. She was watching TV with her husband Andrew when five men burst into their home in Elm Tree Road, Harborne. Fearful one of the men was about to attack her husband, who is registered blind and suffers from kidney failure, Marion leapt on one of the assailants - grappling him to the ground in a headlock. birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/disabled-harborne-woman-tackles-thief-7690177
