TODAY national investigative correspondent Jeff Rossen goes behind bars to interview David Solano, who's serving 25 years to life for robbery, and estimates he's mugged more than 100 people. Now Solano reveals how to avoid becoming a victim of people like him.   Not surprisingly, one of the best deterents in fending off an attacker of any kind is noise.  Loud noise!  Solano mentions personal alarms and electronic whistles as being two of the best deterents to send a mugger packing.  However, The best self-defense weapon, he

states, especially for women, is Pepper Spray and MACE. But the spray must be readily available and not buried in the bottom of a purse.  It must be in the hand or on a keychain so that it can be brought up in moment's notice.  Watch the video to learn what these criminals look for when choosing a victim, and what you can do to fight back, or avoid becoming a victim altogether.

Women buying stun guns, pepper spray or protection sticks called Kubotans is nothing new, but how they're being sold is. Maria van Rossum is one of 20 active sales representatives in Las Vegas for Idaho-based Damsel in Defense, the women's self-defense version of Tupperware, Avon and Mary Kay that's growing since its founding three years ago. It has more than 7,000 reps nationwide. “The reality is one of five women wi...ll be sexually assaulted in their lifetime,” said Mindy Lin, co-founder of the company with Bethany Hughes, both victims of a sexual assault. “It's very personal to both of us but makes us passionate in the sense that the statistics are so high. We both have daughters, and we want to make a difference with women in their ability to

prepare themselves and arm themselves.”

Our new Vampire Repellent Pepper Spray comes infused with essence of garlic. A fusion of pepper and garlic might sound like a great addition to any Italian dish, but DO NOT use this spray in your fettuccine alfredo. Measuring in at 2 million scoville heat units, a direct shot of this hot concoction will cause the eyes and throat to swell up, making it hard to see and even harder to enjoy your pasta. The effects typically wear off in 45 minutes, which makes it a great way to ruin a dinner party, but also gives you plenty of time to give a stalker the slip.

Plus, it'll also coat your vampire friend with an identifying dye, making it easy for a slayer - or the authorities - to catch up with them later.

And here's the good news: it doesn't just work on vampires. It works on garden variety human creeps as well.

With a quick release keychain, a safety lock, and a touch of garlic, Vampire Repellent pepper spray is everything you need to safely deal with your vampire stalker.

Thieves targeting women who are alone, police say. After a series of muggings and car-jackings targeting women, police in Jackson, Mississippi, said Friday that women should arm themselves. "I wouldn't say packing, but I think they need some sort of weapon in order to protect themselves," Officer Colendula Green said. "A lot of friends of mine have tasers or (pepper) spray."

The Jackson Police Department is investigating six cases in the past month of carjacking, armed robbery and auto theft. The two to three thieves, who were either on foot or in a vehicle, are described as black men who are 16 to 20 years old, dressed in dark clothing and hooded shirts. At least one of them was armed during the incidents, police said.

A woman who lives at the Fondren Hills Apartments, where one of the attacks took place, said a friend sent her pepper spray so she could protect herself.

"I sent him the news, and he was worried, but he can't do anything because he's not from here. So he got me (pepper spray) from Amazon," she said.

Jackson police on Thursday issued an urgent warning to women who are alone to be aware of their surroundings when walking to or from their vehicle, along with the following advice:

• If you feel that you are being followed, call 911 immediately and report your location and description. Stay on the phone with the dispatcher in a well-illuminated area until an officer arrives.

• Avoid dark and isolated areas while alone. If possible, travel with others during nighttime hours.

• Report any suspicious activity.

• Avoid distractions, (e.g. cellphones and loud music) while traveling or walking to or away from your vehicle.

• Avoid the display of items that could be attractive to suspects.

"Also, if they have their keys in their hand, if they're approached by a perpetrator, or something like that, they can use their keys as a weapon," Green said.
