Darwin Olympics: Couple Brings a Knives to a Machete Fight

Meanwhile in Alabama . . .

A guy tried to rob a gas station in Huntsville, AL over the weekend and pulled out a knife on the employee inside.

The gas station attendant was NOT having it, and pulled out a much, much bigger knife. A MACHETE!

The gas station attendant hit a button that auto-locks the front doors, so small-knife-burglar-dude was trapped inside with the machete-wielding employee.

Security footage inside the store caught the two getting into a knife fight (no one landed any serious shots or received fatal injuries), before the burglar was able to break the doors down, but the attendant chased after him and started smashing up dude’s car with his machete.

THEN, got into it with the burglar’s girlfriend, who also had a knife that was no match for the machete.

The couple managed to drive off, but didn’t get very far before police caught up to them. The couple’s now facing several charges and could get LIFE in prison.
