OAK PARK, Ill. — When two men — one brandishing a gun — walked into Austin Cleaners and demanded the contents of her cash register last Monday evening, they didn’t count on operator Kim Ja Moon.
The 4-foot, 10-inch Kim, 66, knew the men weren’t regulars. When they asked her to empty the register, she refused. Bracing herself against the counter, she blocked the much larger assailant from getting to the register.
