Recent sexual assaults and attacks prompt Vuong's Martial Arts Center to offer free women's self defense class.
The reported walking her dog near Ridgley Court and Aberdeen Drive has prompted a local business to help women and teenagers fight back against attackers.
Vuong’s Martial Arts Center will offer a free women’s self-defense class Thursday evening at 1117 State Route 3 North.
Gambrills martial arts center owner Chien Vuong said he wants to offer the classes as a community service.
