Philadelphia woman says she used stage combat training to fight off masked man chasing residents
After the man chased her for "a few seconds," Wilson said, she decided that the wisest thing to do in the scenario was turn around and fight."He seemed surprised that I had turned around initially," Wilson said in an interview with Fox News Digital. She described seeing the man accelerate toward the woman, "closing distance really quickly.""I started to wave my arms and started yelling, 'Hey, there's someone behind you,'" Wilson told Fox News Digital. He left the restaurant after showing erratic behavior.
