Several good Samaritans in Florida are being hailed as heroes for stopping an alleged would-be robber who authorities say was attacking a woman in a Publix parking lot on Monday.
The 65-year-old woman came "under attack" outside the store on Boyette Road in Riverview, the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office said. Riverview is a suburb located about 14 miles southeast of Tampa.
The suspect, identified as 42-year-old Robert Moore, allegedly knocked the woman to the ground and stole her car keys.
Three bystanders saw Moore shove the woman to the ground and immediately rushed to the woman’s aid, according to the sheriff’s office.
