FEMALES, BEWARE ALWAYS- my sister was ATTACKED!

This is very hard for me to share and write--especially since I just found out Friday. My sister works about 5-8 blocks from her house therefore she walks to and from. She works 2-10pm. She has worked this shift for years. Usually her son or BF will walk with her for safety reasons of course. Well for whatever the reason Friday she had no one to walk with her and about 4 blocks from her home she was grabbed from behind by a spanish man. Now my sister is 5'7 and a light 120 pounds. She is literally a feather.
She bent forward and grabbed his foot and they both fell to the ground. He punched her in the face several times--she has two black eyes, a bruised nose, skinned knees and bruised arms. My father said she really got beat up bad.

He wanted her rings and cash. The only thing besides God that saved her life was this:

She maced him and then ran for her life.

I believe in dreams. I believe there are random meaningless dreams and then spiritual dreams. About two weeks prior to this happening I had a dream of my mother coming to me fearing for my sister to make a dream story short. I woke up at 3:06am and prayed to God that to watch over her and keep her safe. I called my dad and told him of the dream and we both just prayed for her safety. I really believe it was a warning and I believe our prayers were answered. This attack could have gone so many horrible ways.

So if you are in daylight or night...walking to your car or anywhere please BEWARE and carrying mace or something similar is a good idea!
