A 96-year-old Marshfield woman with nerves of steel prevented her mom-and-pop grocery store from being robbed. Police say the would-be robber may have thought the woman was an easy target when he entered Wolf’s Grocery Store in Marshfield. But the woman put up a fight the man never expected. "He said walk in the back of the store, I said I’m not walking no place, I’m standing right here," said Margaretta Wolf, the store owner. Police say the man wearing a mask ordered Wolf to open the cash register. "I said I’m not opening up that cash register and that’s it, I’m not opening it, I said you can have all the Tootsie Rolls you want but I am not opening that cash register," said Wolf.
