Heroic gardener prevents home invasion robbery

One of the more frightening and potentially dangerous crimes that can occur to a family is a home invasion robbery. A home invasion is when robbers force their way into an occupied home, apartment or hotel room to commit a robbery or other crimes. It is particularly frightening because it violates our private space and the one place that we think of as our sanctuary. HACC observes that this situation becomes more and more frequent in Greece leading sometimes to serious injuries or deaths of those citizens who resist and try to fight the armed criminals. A gardener was stabbed and sent to hospital with serious injuries when he tried to prevent a home invasion robbery. He was hired by an aged couple as a gardener but he turned out to be a heroic guard who fearlessly defended his aged employers. (The video shows a witness describing the whole incident)
