"Responding to requests from local women worried about the serial rapist, Charlottesville police and victim advocates are holding a course on sexual assault prevention and self-defense tactics."

"City police Capt. J.E. 'Chip' Harding said he has received a dozen recent requests for such a course, prompted mostly by fear of the rapist who has attacked at least seven women since 1997." ...

"The police department and the Charlottesville Victim/Witness Assistance Program are sponsoring the 15-hour, five-day course, which starts next month."

"Brian O’Donnell, a local narcotics detective, and Lisa Speidel, a self-defense instructor, will teach participants ways to reduce the risk of an attack and verbal and physical defense techniques." ...
-------

Verbal defense technique: "Please keep away, I have a gun."

Physical defense technique: Pull gun, point at attacker, 90% of the time this will halt the attack. If not, pull trigger until attack stops.
