Watch these brave furries stop a man who was assaulting a woman

Not all heroes wear capes; sometimes they wear fluffy, pink animal costumes. Outside San Jose’s Further Confusion (FurCon) this weekend, a group of furries spotted a man abusing a woman in a car. So they intervened. From CNN:

“We heard a woman’s screams coming from inside and saw the passenger throwing full fists at whoever was driving,” (FurCon DJ Robbie) Ryans told CNN.

“We got up and ran towards the car, my friend pulled open the door and we both held onto the attacker. The girl driver was yelling for him to get out, as he started trying to fight us off.”

Four other people who were attending the convention joined in and helped grab the man, drag him out of the car, and restrain him until police arrived.

Once he the felt the situation was under control, Ryans said he backed up and began filming the incident.

When police arrived, they alleged that the suspect, 22-year-old Demetri Hardnett, assaulted his girlfriend in their car, according to the police report. Hardnett was arrested and booked into Santa Clara County Jail for domestic violence.
