A woman's cell phone became her weapon of choice when a man tried to get inside her car while she was stopped at an intersection in Lawrenceburg.

The woman, stopped at the intersection of Thomas Street and Buffalo Road around 12:30 a.m., first tried to push the man out of the car. She reached for her phone and said she was calling the police, and that's when the man fled.

Lawrenceburg Police arrested 31 year-old Justin Lee Moten for attempted robbery.
