When she heard the banging on her door, 82-year-old Willie Murphy knew immediately something wasn’t right.
82歲的Willie Murphy聽到門“砰”的一聲，就知道情況不對(duì)。

Then the man smashed his way into her Rochester, N.Y. home.
然后一個(gè)男人沖進(jìn)了她位于紐約羅切斯特市的家中。

“He picked the wrong house to break into,” she told WHAM 13 News.
她對(duì)《WHAM 13 News》說：“他闖錯(cuò)地方了?！?/div>

Murphy isn’t your average octogenarian.
Murphy可不是普通的八旬老人。

In 2018, she won the World Natural Powerlifting Federation Upstate New York Championships, and says she can deadlift 225 pounds. She’s also appeared on ESPN and the Rachel Ray Show.
2018年她在世界自然舉重聯(lián)合會(huì)紐約州北部錦標(biāo)賽中奪冠，她說可以硬舉225磅，還上過娛樂與體育節(jié)目電視網(wǎng)和《Rachel Ray Show》節(jié)目。

So when she was confronted by a crook trying to rob her house at night, she wasn’t about to let herself get pushed around.
所以在晚上面對(duì)入室搶劫的劫匪時(shí)，她才不會(huì)任人擺布。

“I’m alone, I’m old, but guess what, I’m tough,” she said.
她說：“我獨(dú)居，年紀(jì)又大，但你猜怎么著，我很強(qiáng)?！?/div>

The house was dark, so she could easily hide as the crook moved into her home, she told WHAM 13 News. She had already called police, but wasn’t about to sit by and let this criminal take advantage of her.
她對(duì)《WHAM 13 News》說，當(dāng)時(shí)屋里很黑，所以劫匪進(jìn)入房子時(shí)她輕易地就藏起來了。她已經(jīng)報(bào)警了，但也沒準(zhǔn)備坐以待斃。

“I picked up the table and I went to work on him,” she said, adding that she broke the table in the attack.
她說：“我舉起桌子就開始揍他，”她還說桌子都砸壞了。

And while he was down, Murphy added, she jumped on him.
Murphy繼續(xù)說把對(duì)方打趴下以后，她跳到了他的身上。

With the crook injured, she then grabbed a bottle of shampoo and poured it all over his face. Then, Murphy said, she grabbed a broom and continued to hit him.
劫匪受傷以后，她又抓起一瓶洗發(fā)水灑了對(duì)方一臉，然后抓起掃帚繼續(xù)打。

“He’s pulling the broom,” she told the news outlet. “I’m hitting him with the broom.”
她對(duì)這家新聞機(jī)構(gòu)說：“他拽著掃帚，我用掃帚打他?！?/div>

When officers and first responders arrived, they took the suspect to the hospital.
警察和急救人員到達(dá)以后，他們把嫌疑人送到了醫(yī)院。

“The officers that came wanted to go on my front porch and take selfies with me,” Murphy said.
Murphy說：“到場(chǎng)的警察來到我家前門廊，想跟我合照?！?/div>

After the incident, the 82-year-old decided the man - who police say was intoxicated - had had enough and chose not to press charges.
這件事過去以后，警察說那個(gè)人喝多了，這位82歲的老人認(rèn)為他已經(jīng)受到了懲罰，不會(huì)起訴他。

“I really did a number on that man,” she said.
她說：“他真被我打得夠嗆。”
