A woman in Florida successfully fought off a would be assailant after letting him into the gym in her apartment building.

Police edited video show the attack.  The assailant was captured within 24 hours and is being held without bail.

Very happy to see that this woman fought off her attacker.
Also, happy to see that he is being held without bond. The incident is in FL.  In NYC, he would probably already be out on the street.
One reason for her success was her strength.  She is not a weak woman.  Her strength definitely helped her keep him from gaining full control.
One critique… once he had her on the floor, her focus should’ve been on gouging and biting. The phone helped inflict a bit more pain, which caused him to allow her to escape. A bite with serious intent would’ve allowed that to happen sooner.
One recommendation… if alone anywhere at night, a woman should at least have pepper spray handy.
