Wild video shows a female University of Chicago student fighting back against an armed robber, amazingly yanking the magazine out of her attacker’s firearm — as a man sitting feet away watches without helping.
The heroic 21-year-old economics senior, only identified by the first name Madelyn, was one of three students from the university held up at gunpoint just moments apart on Wednesday.
“I see a man in a ski mask coming toward me, and I attempt to keep walking,” Madelyn told NBC Chicago .

Madelyn tussled with the suspect for a few moments as she glanced wildly around her, seemingly imploring a passerby to intervene — with a male student instead just watching while he sat on the ground just feet away, surveillance footage showed.
The armed assailant was “grabbing for my phone and I am kinda pulling it behind my back,” she recalled.
