This is Betty. She's a 76-year-old woman who doesn't take crap from anyone.

Don't fuck with her because she will punch you right in the face - be warned.

Someone probably should've told the young woman who climbed onto the back of her wheelchair and reached down to steal her handbag on Monday.

Betty was on her way to a funeral in Essex when the incident took place, but she managed to punch her square on the nose.

She told The Metro: "Her face was two inches away from my face so I punched it. She looked very angry.

"She managed to grab the bag and run off so I started shouting 'she's got my bag'."

The woman started making off, but luckily two men heard the commotion and chased after her. She dropped the bag and then the men came back to see if Betty was okay.

"I am not a weakling. I ran a sports club for disabled people and I am a national arm-wrestling champion. She picked on the wrong person."

"I am certainly not going to stop going out shopping, I will not become a victim of thieves.

"I would like to thank my Good Samaritans, especially Phil, and Kevin who bought me a me a cup of tea, and then escorted me home."

What a badass.
