A pair of St. Louis thieves picked the wrong mark. They tried to steal the purses of a couple women who were loading groceries into their car, but were instead treated to a barrage of violence.

One woman grabbed a snow shovel from the back of the suspects' pickup, and beat one of the crooks over the head with it. The other woman assaulted the other man, taking the truck's keys away so the would-be bandits couldn't drive off.

The pair were arrested at a nearby motel. The one had to have his head stapled to close the gash on his noggin. They are presently jailed with appropriate charges. Alas, 'getting whooped' isn't technically a crime.
