That is an interesting question. If I was the victim in that scenario it would come down to 2 decisions based on there only being 1 badie trying to harm me. 1) Can I actually stop this lunatic, and 2) Can I do that without me being badly hurt. If my brain says "Yes!" to both those then I'd most certainly use force to protect myself. If, on the other hand, either one of those options is a "No!" then I'd try to get away as best I could. Being able to live normally after that situation is much better than having a silly story to tell imo.
