You’re never too old to be a hero as Samuel Williams proves.

The 71-year-old was sitting in the Palms Internet Cafe in Ocala, Fla. on Friday night when two men stormed into and tried to rob the venue.

“Don’t none of you [expletives] move,” one of the teens reportedly yelled at the café patrons.

The teens identified as Davis G. Dawkins and Duwayne Henderson, both 19, were arrested hours later, according to Ocala.com. They have been charged with attempted armed robbery with a firearm and felony criminal mischief.
