Legally Blind Man Foils Attack On Woman

A legally blind Missouri man who we’ll call Jerry, heard a disturbance from a neighboring apartment, and went to investigate.  He kicked in the door to only startle the would be rapist.  When the police arrived, the woman said that she did not recognize the man in her apartment.

The police arrested the 45 year-old man and charged him with burglery.  The legally blind man who kicked in the door has no vision in his left eye and limited vision in his right.

So you see, it just goes to show that those who are blind, or visually challenged in any way can and do defend their sighted peers from harm.  That was a very corageous act and could have ended up much worse, especially for the blind man who had kicked in the door of that apartment.  What if the guy had a gun, or had attacked the blind man instead?  Woosh! that was offly close!  Tht could have ended up a real disaster.

So please, whatever you do; be very careful when approaching anything that is out of the ordinary because it could be dangerous for you in the end.  That guy survived, but it could have been much worse for him if the 45 year-old man had other motives other than raping the woman.  However, nevertheless, the blind man was recognized as a hero, and should be treated as such because after all; he did save the woman’s life from harm.
