My wife and i went out for a late movie night a couple nights ago. We’re in Orange County California and we’ve always heard about the crime rates but never witnessed anything ourselves.
We were arriving within our gated community around 3 am when i see a black jeep just idling in the middle of the road within the community. I drive around him and he begins to follow closely. I park my car within our parking garage which is next to everyone else cars. However he parks his car directly behind to block me. We weren’t aware that we were followed until my wife exits the car and is immediately rushed by a hispanic man asking her “Quien eres?”. I grab my wife and pull her into the car and i pull out of the spot barely squeezing through. i attempt to block their car so i can get their license when he suddenly floors it. Had i not moved he would’ve t-boned me.
My wife and i were clearly shaken from the situation and i honestly don’t know what i could’ve done to protect her or myself. If the assailant was armed would any hand to hand combat really help? Should i consider taking course and arm myself while i get a taser for my wife? I’m relieved nothing happened but i’m concerned of ever being caught off guard and defenseless.
I appreciate any advice and if this isn’t the right subreddit to post this in please let me know where i should post this!
