"Reasonable force, is that you can protect YOURSELF, and can push to person to the floor, and hold that person to the floor or lock that person in a room. Before police arrive."

Surely it is not reasonable to expect your average 78 year old to wrestle a young, strong and presumably healthy younger person to the floor, restrain them whilst at the same time phoning the police, chances are the phone is in another room, a lot of older people do not have mobiles. Also these days how long before the police arrive? Personally I would grab the nearest object and let them have it!
