How to Survive a Mugging
____________________________________

1. Do not argue or fight with a mugger unless your life is clearly in danger.
   If all a mugger wants is your purse, wallet, or other belongings, surrender them. Your possessions are not worth your life.


2. If you are certain that your attacker means to do you or a loved one harm, attack vital areas of your assailant's body.


3. Use an object as a weapon.


4. Many common objects can be effective weapons if they are aimed at vulnerable body parts. Pick up and use what is easily available, whether it is a stick, your keys, or a car antenna (all are good for slashing or jabbing at your attacker's face and eyes).
