New Incidents of Mace Use

I've been hearing and reading more lately about women using Mace pepper sprays to thwart attacks. A woman who was threatened recently said on the CBS Early Show this morning that she never goes anywhere without her Mace pepper spray.

Recently a woman in Norfolk Virginia parked her car at 8:30 PM and while walking soon felt a sharp object in her lower back. The man moved the knife to her neck and said, "We're going to walk to your car and get in and go for a ride." She used her key chain Mace and sprayed it at the attacker who screamed and fled.

Dog pepper spray repellent is standard issue for postal workers. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta, every year nearly 4.7 million people become the victims of dog bites within the United States. Of these bites, almost 800,000 require medical attention, with a small percentage of dog bite injuries resulting in fatalities. Pepper spray has saved countless postal workers from serious injuries.
