Steve Utash was driving in Detroit, Mich. when he accidentally struck a 10-year-old boy with his vehicle. Retired nurse Deborah Hughes was inside her nearby home at the time, and once she became aware of the accident, she retrieved a .38-caliber pistol and went to see if she could help. While she was trying to comfort the injured boy, a mob began to attack Utash, who had stopped and gotten out of his vehicle.
As the beating was taking place, Hughes rushed over to the crowd and told the mob, Dont kick him anymore, dont hit him anymore, get back, halting the attack. Hughes later told a local media outlet, I had a gun in my pocket, I was ready to do some damage if I had to.
Following the incident, Detroit Police Chief James Craig referred to Hughes as a Detroit hero. Hughes made clear to a reporter that she is often armed stating, You have to carry a gun around here This neighborhood is terrible. I dont walk around without my gun.
