Derek Mothershead of the We Buy Gold store in Hendersonville, North Carolina is both tough and tidy. When he saw that a robber was armed with only a pellet gun, Mothershead took him down with a single left cross:
Then, to add magnificent insult to injury, the clerk decided that the robber should find something useful to do while waiting for the police. Specifically, clean his own blood off the floor:

“He kind of begged me, begged me to let him go,” Mothershead said. “I said, 'You came in and tried to rob us. You’re going to jail.'”

I use to work at a recycling center and we had a guy grab a bunch of cash and run onto the roof of the building when we gave chase. He ended up falling through the roof (it was fiberglass) and fell 10 feet into a large metal dumpster full of broken and unbroken glass bottles. He laid there squealing like a stuck pig until the police and ambulance showed up.

I told him that it is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure — and in some cases I have — that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.
