A Kentucky woman heroically turned the tables on the man who was trying to rob her at knifepoint by shooting him in the neck and buttocks with her own gun..

The unidentified woman was being stalked by John Ganobick on the night of January 26 when he followed her into a shopping mall elevator to the parking lot.

Exiting the elevator with her, he gave chase when she ran to her car and tried to beat her – leaving his victim fearing she would be raped.

But he quickly found himself on the receiving end of some rough justice when she pulled her Beretta gun from her handbag and opened fire.

Surveillance cameras played in court this week from the Fourth Street Live food court show the chilling moment when Ganobick began to follow the woman.

She told Louisville Metro Police she sensed instantly that she was being stalked.

‘The victim asked the suspect what floor he needed, and the victim described the suspect as being out of it, possibly high or drunk, but when he said the sixth floor, the victim stated she became nervous,’ states the police report read out in court.

Appearing in court sporting a breathing tube that is a reminder of his injuries after the attempted attack, Ganobick has been charged with attempted murder, robbery and kidnapping.

During the video, the footage shows the woman walking into the elevator where she is joined by Ganobick.

During the 13-second tride from the 1st to 6th floor, neither looks at each other.

‘When the elevator opened on the sixth floor, the victim state she began to run to her vehicle, which was parked about 10 spots away from the elevator. The victim stated the suspect gave chase,’ the police report states.

Louisville Metro Police said the woman noticed Ganobick following her in the food court around 6.15pm and he followed her to the parking garage.

She told police when the elevator reached her floor, she started running to her car, but he chased her.

The woman got in her car and he pushed in behind her and put his hand over her mouth, according to ABC 7.

Ganobick slammed her head into an unknown object, told her to ‘give me all your money’, and showed her a knife, the arrest report said.

‘The victim stated she was afraid that she would be raped or murdered and as she fell across the passenger seat of her vehicle, she was able to reach into her purse and grab her gun and attempt to fire a shot at the suspect,’ the report states.

During the violent struggle the woman, who was being held at knife-point, reached into her purse and pulled out a gun.

The woman told police Ganobick was thrusting his knee toward her torso and trying to push her into the passenger seat of the car, according to WLKY.

According to the woman she pulled the trigger, but the gun did not fire. So she kept on pulling the trigger till it did.

‘Fearing for her life, the victim kept pulling the trigger of her gun, which finally fired, and struck the suspect in the neck.’

He recoiled, but according to the woman, collected himself despite his injury and started to come towards her again.

‘The victim described being afraid that the suspect was turning to come back at her and she kept pulling and struck the suspect in the buttocks,’ states the police report.

Surveillance footage captured the man coming down the parking garage’s stairs bleeding from the neck.

A witness alerted authorities and called 911, according to ABC 7.

Police charged Ganobick with attempted murder, kidnapping and criminal mischief.

The woman he attacked suffered multiple injuries but was expected to be fine.

Evidence photos show police recovered a rusty steak knife from the stairwell. Police also recovered the woman’s gun. She had an Indiana concealed carry permit for the Gun.
