This is the terrifying moment a jeweller was tasered in his home by a raider posing as a delivery man – before his brave fiancee grabbed a kitchen knife and chased off the intruder.

The attack on multi-millionaire gold dealer Nigel Blackburn was caught on CCTV at his home in Hemington, Leicestershire.

As the 56-year-old went to sign for what he thought was a package, he was shot in the side of his neck with the Taser and pushed to the floor.

Attack: Paul Grimshaw is caught on CCTV trying to raid Nigel Blackburn's home in Hemington, Leicestershire. The 31-year-old can be seen tasering the multi-millionaire's neck with a stun-gun as he lies on the ground

Shock: Grimshaw, who is disguised as a deliveryman, looks up as Mr Blackburn's fiancée runs downstairs

Brave: Pranne Rice, 29, charges at her husband-to-be's attacker with a kitchen knife - causing him to flee

Recovering: Mr Blackburn, pictured with Miss Rice, suffered a cut arm and facial and neck injuries in the attack

The dramatic footage then shows the would-be burglar fleeing in terror as Mr Blackburn’s fiancee, Pranee Rice, and her friend, Mornrat Sangyang, charge at him with kitchen knives.

Speaking outside Leicester Crown Court, Mr Blackburn said: ‘Pranee stopped me from being killed.

When the delivery man suddenly stuck a stun-gun into my neck the pain was excruciating. I dragged him to the floor with me and started shouting.

‘Pranee and Mornrat heard me and came downstairs as fast as two horses bolting. They just grabbed some knives and charged straight at him, screaming to get out. He must have been terrified of them.’

Judge Simon Hammond, who jailed attacker Paul Grimshaw for eight years, commended the two women for their ‘great bravery’.

The judge said: ‘When the fiancee and her friend appeared tooled up with knives, the defendant thought he’d had enough.

‘I’m publicly commending the two women in the house, who I think behaved with great bravery in chasing him away.’

Grimshaw, 31, from Lytham St Annes, Lancashire, who fled empty-handed, admitted aggravated burglary and possessing a stun gun with intent to commit robbery.

Miss Rice, 29, had initially answered the door to him on the evening of June 20, but he insisted that her fiance sign for the parcel.
She told the court: ‘We were upstairs, heard the noise and just acted instinctively, without thinking. We’re proud the judge praised our actions. It was very frightening but we’d do it again.’

Grimshaw told police he was reluctantly recruited by a criminal gang to enter the property and overpower Mr Blackburn before others followed to loot the house. No one else was caught, however.

Mr Blackburn, who suffered minor injuries, has now moved home and has sold his car, which had a personalised number plate. He said: ‘Sadly, my partner won’t sleep without a weapon next to the bed now.’

had they inflicted so much a scratch on the scum intruder, they themselves would have been arrested and facing a lengthy investigation, prosecution, trial and imprisonment.

uk law is very much on the side of the burglar.

A toad with gold can earn a live-in gold digger. She ain't bad .. for a White girl.
