Kickass Kids of the Day: When two men stole $200 from a group of cookie-selling Girl Scouts in Texas, a crime-fighting duo of senior troopers refused to let them leave without learning that “Courageous and Strong” are more than just words to recite.
After one of two thieves lifted the cash box from the troop’s cookie table, which was situated outside a Walmart in Bellaire, 9-year Girl Scout senior Rachel Johnson and her friend Iravia Cotton sprung into action, and pounced on the getaway car.
“I started hitting the boy that was in the passenger seat, so I think he learned his lesson a little bit,” said Cotton. Meanwhile, Johnson hung onto the car as it continued to speed away. She was eventually forced to let go, and sustained minor injuries.
“Who steals from a Girl Scout? I mean, seriously, it’s like the worst thing ever,” Johnson said. “I hope your face hurts from when Iravia punched you — jerks!”
The perps are sadly still at large.

Those kids are going to make a million dollars in cookie money now.
