Verbal Judo Could Help

As a friendly reminder, if someone holds a gun to your head and says “I’m going to fucking kill you,” it’s probably not a good idea to grab the gun out of his hand and chase after him. Even if this method works:

A young man assisted police in capturing a teenage thug after the man and his female companion were beaten and robbed at gunpoint in Brooklyn, authorities said yesterday.

The trouble began about 9 p.m. Sunday, when Justin Snider, 22, and Zsizsi Verushka, 20, were approached by Keith Dunn and two accomplices at St. James Place near Gates Avenue in Fort Greene, cops said.

Dunn, 17, allegedly pointed a gun at Snider’s head and said, “We are going to f- – -ing kill you . . .”

Snider then reached out and snatched the weapon from Dunn’s hand, sources said.

That triggered an assault in which Dunn and his accomplices pummeled Snider, cops said.

The thugs then pushed Verushka to the ground, snatched $20 from her purse and fled, sources said.

As Snider gave chase, Dunn allegedly picked up a rock and hurled it at him, but missed.

Snider was able to catch Dunn and hold him until police arrived.

Dunn was charged with assault and robbery.

Also, just to be clear, while it may have worked this time, doing so is not “assisting” the police. Instead, it is rather stupid — no matter what the Post tells you.
