Whaaaat! They robbed the Waffle House again: On Sept. 6, around 5:30 in the morning, some creep walked into the Waffle House over onNorth Cassady Avenue, sat down, picked up a menu, looked it over and started talking with the waitress like he was going to place an order.  He then implied that he had a gun and told her to give up the loot.  She did and old boy calmly strolled like he had bought an order to go.

Rascal with crooked teeth robbed Horton’s Restaurant:On Sept 3, around 8:14 p.m., a White male entered the Tim Horton’s restaurant, located in the 2400 block of Brice Road.  The raggedy-mouthed rascal gave the casher a note telling her to give up all the cash in the register. The clerk complied and gave him every dime they had to get this crazy looking fool out of the restaurant before he could hurt somebody. The clerk described the guy as in his late 30s wearing stripped shorts with a mouth full of crooked teeth. The police said the whole incident was caught on tape and folk’s should be on the lookout for this fella who could use some dental attention.

Two Black dudes, dressed in black, robbed Huntington Bank:Back on July 16, at 1:30 p.m., the hold-up alarm was received from the Huntington Bank on East Main Street.  Both suspects were Black and dressed in all black. One of the dudes wore a black scarf; the other fella was wearing a black ski mask. One had a shotgun and the other had a handgun and jumped and stood up on the top of the customer service counter.  The crooks ran out and fled in an unknown direction. Sounds like a story out of some kind of wild, wild western movie. That is, until they are caught. Be on the look out for these two clowns.

Two robbers jumped over the counter at PNC Bank on East Broad: On Aug. 20, at approximately 11:30 a.m., the same two Black dudes we just talked about in the above article, all dressed in black, robbed the PNC Bank over on East Broad Street.
