knock over
Send something tumbling
To knock over is to cause something to fall by striking or bumping it: The cat knocked over the vase.
By extension, knock over means to rob, especially a store or bank: They knocked over three gas stations in one night.
To be knocked over by something is to be stunned or overwhelmed: I was knocked over by the news.
