The muggers reportedly fled after the cyclist brandished the cup, which was later confirmed to have been effective in scaring them off. Authorities praised the creative and non-violent approach, highlighting how an everyday object became an unlikely tool for self-defense. The incident has sparked discussions about resourcefulness in dangerous situations.
