A man attempting to rob a woman in Centre County on Wednesday night quickly realized he chose the wrong person. Emma Troutman said she was getting something from her car when a man attacked her while she was in her driveway in Taylor Township around 11:30 p.m. Troutman said the man grabbed her arm, pushed her head against the window, and demanded money. Little did the suspect know, Emma Troutman is a trained law enforcement officer. "I opened up the car, just the door a little bit, and he backed off - thinking I was getting my purse or something. I had my pistol inside the door. So I grabbed it with my one hand. And when I spun around and he saw I had that, he took off running."
