A very brave 7-year-old boy attempted to stop a robbery at a video game store by punching one of the robbers.

It happened last Friday at a GameStop in Silver Spring, Maryland, and it was all caught on camera.

In the video, you can see the boy punching one of the robbers twice. The thief pushed the boy away, but did not hurt him.

His parents were in another part of the store when the incident happened.

The two men in hooded sweatshirts were able to escape with an undisclosed amount of cash from the store's register. They are still at large.
