An elderly woman fights off armed robbers... with fruit.

When this 80 year old woman saw two men stealing from the cash register of her son-in-law's grocery store... she jumped into action.

No super powers... So, she defended the store with what was handy: Mangoes.

In this security video you can see the woman throwing several mangoes at one of the men...

He then apparently hits her on the head with his gun.

The alleged robbers got between $400 and $500, before they were captured.

The elderly hero should be back on her feet soon.
