Grandpa has a Silver Star for Valor. Don't FUCK with grandpa!




A WOULD-BE thief made the worst mistake of his career after breaking into the house of a retired Army boxer. Gregory McCalium, 23, fronted court yesterday with a black eye and a fat lip after he was busted - and subsequently bashed - by 71-year-old retired First Sergeant Frank Corti in Mr Corti’s house.

Mr. Corti said he was woken in the middle of the night by noises in his house and was confronted by the knife-wielding McCalium when he went to investigate. He said McCalium “took a slash” at him, but Mr Corti ducked and threw two big right hooks at the assailant.

And Mr Corti knows how to throw a right hook – he was famous for it as a featherweight in the Army.

The blows almost knocked McCalium out, allowing Mr Corti to perform a citizens’ arrest and wait for the police to arrive. Defenndant McCalium’s lawyer told the court his client “looked like a car accident”. “Photos of the scene looked more like a murder scene,” the attorney told the court. The judge wasn’t moved, saying McCalium “got what he deserved” before sentencing him to four-and-a-half years’ jail.

Army Strong Mr. Corti! Army gottdamned Strong, Frank!!!

Next?
