> The suspect made one final effort to ride away on the 31-year-old's bike, but was easily knocked off

So this robber has just been stabbed in the neck and he makes one last attempt to steal the bike and actually gets on it and starts trying to ride away — while, again, bleeding profusely from the neck — and the guy shoves him off the bike?

Imagining this whole scene happening is just wild. I'm so glad the guy is okay and I hope he gets whatever counseling he needs. I can't imagine it's easy, physically or mentally, to actually have to stab someone in self defense, it's traumatic.

I mean at that point I can understand being like “okay there’s no WAY I’m letting you take the fucking bike at this point”

I'm imagining the scene like, buddy you're not going anywhere, blood is spurting from your carotid artery, but the robber is wobbling away on this bike — he can barely keep himself upright — so our hero guy walks over and pushes him off the bike and he falls in shambles into the street with the bike on top of him.

I'm not trying to make light of this but if you saw this scene in a movie it would be hilarious.

I would need counseling because my erection did not subside within 4-6 hours after I Samurai Jack’d the asshole who tried to steal my bike

See now I'm imagining that the hero guy develops a heretofore unknown thirst for blood now that he's had this experience. He could have gone his whole life not knowing how great it feels to stab a guy, but now nothing else will compare.

If the hero guy is reading this, sorry, I really don't want to be disrespectful of what you went through, it's just that this story is wild.
