I found out what the disturbance was last night email this discussion to a friend?

Last night I posted a discussion about police activity at the convenience store next door to where I live. I live in a very quiet neighbor and after dark, you can hear a pin drop. Well last night I looked out of the window and saw at least seven police cars parked at the store. I live in a small town, so the whole police force must have been there.
I found out this morning that an armed robbery had taken place there last night. Three masked men with guns came in and put guys to the heads of the clerks and demanded their money, and took all the money in the cash register and the money from the pick it machine, they also went in the back and took the safe.

I sometimes would go to the store at night, if there was something I needed and didn't want to wait until the next day to go to the bigger supermarkets.
I won't be going out at night anymore.

I saw that discussion but waited to hear what it was before responding.
Things like that can really bring ones heartrate up being so close.
I am hoping that noone was injured during this robbery as well.
We have not had this happen near us.
But my wife works in Minneapolis and was robbed many years ago at her job as a waitress. No gun nor threats were made towards here during this. They were caught in an hours time too.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

Thank God, your wife was not hurt. In this robbery I heard that they had guns to the head of one of the men who worked there.
What bad times we are living in.
By the way, how is your new little baby angel doing?happy

Thanks for asking also.

Will see the baby again this weekend I think.

How awful for the clerks that work there! shocked I do hope they will get some counseling to help them deal with the emotions involved with having guns to their heads and such. Wow!

Not going out there at night anymore is cowering to the fear that these criminals are instilling in your neighbourhood. Don't let them win. "Take back the night". Although I do understand how you may want to wait a few weeks for the shock of the robbery event to wear off some.

I will probably go to the store at night if I needed something. The thing about it is this is such a good neighborhood. And you are right, I shouldn't let them scare me, they are probably from another city anyway, since the highway is so close.

Criminals and vandals and gangs rarely do damage to their own "turf". You're likely right that they aren't from your town.

wow sudalunts that is scary, I am only glad nobody got shot, as that has happened here in Tustin in a 7=11 store a few years back. and they just now sentenced the two men who killed the clerk. we have a circle K convenience store just a half block from this apartment complex and I have always worried about the nice asian ladies who run the thing. I never go there at night. it would b e so awful if armed robbers came in there. those are really sweet people the whole family works there even the older grandma.


myLot reputation of 98/100. sudalunts (4247)   ranked 66 out of 38,471 in life  1 year ago

Yeah, it was really scary, since I live right next door. I am sorry to hear that someone got killed in the robbery in Tustin.
Indians run this store, and there are usually two men and one young woman that are there at night. The gun was put to one of the men's head, and a gunman had the gun at the woman's side. She quit the job and never came back, she is so afraid. I do not blame her, I probably would have quit too.
