An unflinching 71-year-old woman fought off four teen females who punched and stomped on her during a botched mugging on the New York City subway system
The victim was on her way to a church service on New Year's Day in Brooklyn at around 6 p.m. when she got off a Number 3 train at Hoyt Station – only to be set upon by the teens, according to the NYPD and a New York Post report. Michael Dorgan is a writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business.
