It turns out Liam Neeson is not only a lovely person who makes entertaining films in which he always saves the day, but he is also a hero in real life.
According to ShowbizSpy.com, the Taken star was out jogging in Manhattan’s Central Park when he heard a woman shouting about a dog in trouble.
A source explained: “Liam charged down a path and confronted three gangbanger wannabe types who were throwing rocks at a stray they’d cornered up against a trash bin.
“Liam yelled that they’d better stop or he’d knock the crap out of them – but the punks just swaggered up and warned him to mind his own business. In a fury, he warned them to back off fast or else!”
When the police arrived, the boys retreated and left the park. Liam, who comforted the dog while the officer assessed his injuries, left shortly after.
Two words: absolute gentleman.
