i was walking about 3 blocks in the Heights in Houston at midnight. empty street. I'm twenty years old, and am about 6'1", 200 lbs. best shape i'll ever be in my life. a car pulls up and a dude jumps out the passenger side and comes up to me.
it was just an opportunistic thing, clearly. they saw a guy by himself and decided to go for it. they had no plan. guy that came up to me says 'give me your wallet.'
dude goes about 5'4" and 130 pounds.
i'm in gym clothes. don't even have pockets. 'i don't have a wallet.' 'what do you mean you don't got no wallet? you want me to get my gun?'
i just grab him and bear hug him. 'calm down dude.' he manages to put his foot up on me and leg presses himself free. he goes 'imma get my gun.' goes back to the car, hops in the passenger side, and they drive away.
i call the cops when i get to my destination. realized i didn't have much to say. it really drove home to me how unreliable eye witness testimony is. i could only say basically the facts that i said above. what race were they? i don't really remember. what car were they driving? i don't know.
