MMA fighter attacked after intervening in attempted mugging

WMC Action News 5 out of Memphis, TN reports that last Saturday morning a local pro MMA fighter came to the aid of a woman being robbed in broad daylight. That outlet stated that the incident occurred near Second Street in the city’s downtown core.

Mandy ‘MissDemeanor’ Polk is the Good Samaritan who attempted to intervene in the incident. “When the woman yelled, ‘Help me, help me! Somebody help me!’ That’s when I knew I had to go,” said Polk.

Polk also told WMC Action News 5 that bystanders had already begun calling the police when she approached both the victim and her male assailant.
