While this unidentified NOLA man took matters into his own hands during an attempted carjacking, in hindsight, he's acknowledging the danger associated with his actions.
According to WDSU, the man was dropping off a present to a neighbor on Christmas Day in Uptown New Orleans. You can see the man exit his vehicle on video—as he told the news station that he didn't plan on his delivery taking any longer than one minute.
As his red SUV was running in the background, a silver SUV pulls into the frame. At that point, one of the two males exits the vehicle and then slips behind the wheel of the red SUV.
What happened next might be the most Louisianian defense tactic on record as the carjacking victim threw the gift he was bringing to his neighbor—allegedly a pot of gumbo—at the vehicle. He then climbed on top of his vehicle as the suspect was trying to get away with it, grabbing him through the sunroof in a desperate attempt to wrestle him out.
