Disabled man in wheel chair tackles child molestation suspect
"Using a wheelchair didn’t stop Cameron Aulner, 22, from being a hero.

Comcast employee, Aulner, was working a table at the front of the Westminster, CO Wal-mart when he saw a suspect grab and attempt to abduct a young girl. As the suspect tried to leave the store, Aulner didn’t thick twice but tackled the suspect and held him until the police could arrive and take over."

1. Doesn't surprise me at all. A lot of the guys i've met, particularly
those who don't have motorized chairs, have incredible upper body strength. Just cuz a guy is in a wheelchair it doesn't mean he is disabled.

3. Agreed. What blew me away is that a bunch of other people...
...just stood there while the alleged "scumbag" snatched the kid. He was the one who tackled him to the ground, everyone else hollered.

His mama raised him right.

:hi:

6. sarcasm well taken.
But I have been wondering about this guy and wondering how he is doing.

Hope he is getting the help he needs.

What happened to rewards for good deeds?

I am sure he could use some scratch.
