Five-year-old Chloe Edwards's daily accomplishments might usually look like this: watch cartoons, eat paste, play tag, more delicious paste. But the Middlesbrough, England, tot can now add "stare down a knife-wielding burglar in the middle of the night" to her list.

The would-be robber learned that you'll need more than a meat clever to scare off this tough little girl.

At two in the morning, Chloe Edwards awoke to a noise coming from her family's kitchen. She got out of bed, went downstairs and was greeted by an intoxicated 18-year-old Dean Affleck (no relation to Ben and Casey, thank God).

Armed with a kitchen knife, Dean told Chloe to go back to bed so he could get back to robbing the house. Summoning Charlton Heston's hallowed might, Chloe yelled back, "Put my Daddy's car keys down!"

At this point, the grown-ups finally got involved. Chloe's mother, Rachel, and father, Mark, heard their young daughter's call for justice and rushed into the kitchen. Rachel took Chloe back to bed where her two lazy, non-vigilante-crime-fighting siblings were asleep.

Meanwhile, Mark chased Dean out of the house, around the yard and punched him. Dean ran into another yard, punched a couple of girls who live nearby and finally was arrested by the police. Just imagine this with Benny Hill music loudly playing because they are in England.

In conclusion, "Greatest Generation," please! We've got 5-year-old girls who ain't scared of knives!
