Walked in to armed robbery in progress

[STEEL CORE]

Saw it on the morning news, glad your all safe, however, news said two suspects and only one was caught after a brief chase.

Thats another good reason not to chase. there were 2 more bad guys i didnt even see. they must have been parked in the alley.

 

[Papabeargsh]

It's nice to hear a story where training and experience were used.

 

[USMC_0311]

Wow! Was Mini0311 with you??
Glad you folks are ok!

No he opted to stay home Chocolate source is secure.

 

[USMC_0311]

That was close.

Your 1st reaction to seek cover and protect was the right one.

If you were alone would your actions have been different. Just curious as we all wonder what we would do if this were to happen.

If I would have been alone I doubt my actions would be any different. Now if you asked me 20 years ago...

You did the right thing. It's not your place to give chase in a situation like that. Your first obligation is to protect you and yours and procure your own safety.

Stay vigilant Marine.

Anderson Harvest Market on Columbus Street.

Not the first time that store has been through that situation. I have heard some pretty epic fails on the criminal's part in at least a few robberies at that particular market. If it were me, I would drive a little bit further, and go up to the one on 8th street.

Chocolate source is secure.

Whew.
It's OK, folks. Everybody rest easy now. All is well.

Yeah....me too.

 

[BiscuitNaBasket]

Glad nobody got hurt!

 

[88GT]

Glad to hear you're both OK, and that you didn't walk through that door any sooner than you did!

Can we ladies finally get a break for making you late now?

 

[searpinski]

Glad you're alright. That guy could have had a really bad day had you been earlier.

 

[Mrwindow]

Good thing no shots were fired by the perp. Would have been a bad day for all I imagine.
