CCTV shows the moment a cashier fended off an armed robber with her bare hands.

In the footage, a man draws his gun on the unsuspecting cashier after approaching the till to pay for a drink.

Bhumika Patel can then be seen pushing the thief’s gun away before hitting him over the head with the cash drawer.

She then grabs a hammer and chases after the fleeing suspect.

Burke County sheriff’s office released the footage from Tuesday morning in Georgia USA.

It has been reported that the suspect pictured in the video has since been taken into custody.
