Thursday morning feel good story

Chief Tango sends us our feel good story this morning, this time it’s from Connecticut where an armed thief went one convenience store too far;

New Haven police report that just before midnight on Tuesday, they responded to Congress Avenue where a store clerk was held up by a suspect with a riffle.

While officers were taking the store owner’s statement, he received a telephone call from his brother, who also works at a convenience store. The brother said he was just held up and opened fire on the suspect.

Police responded to Nino’s Mini market and found the suspect who had been shot in the chest, they also recovered the rifle.

The suspect is not being identified, but police say he was rushed to Yale New Haven Hospital and pronounced dead.

  1. How did he hold up the first “stop & rob” store with a riffle? Not trying to be picky, more like smartassed!! Regardless, thanks to his Brother’s marksmanship under duress there is one less goblin that will have to be fed, clothed, and housed at taxpayers’ expense!!

  2. Regarding the deceased:

    Too bad so sad
    Sucks to be you
    Tried to rob store
    Shot, fell to floor
    Now you’re no more
