Bad Boys Bad Boys...What ya gonna do?...
Interesting night I had tonight. I was out running errands and decided to swing through Wendy's for a bite to eat. I started to go in but really wanted to get home to let the dogs out so I went through the drivethru. I ordered my usual, got the price and pulled around...all seemed as usual. I went to hand the lady at the window my money and she wouldn't take it. She looked back and then leaned out the window and asked if I have a cell phone. I said yah...and she said, very calmly, "would you mind dialing 911? We are being robbed". OK...I dialed 911 (stupidly still sitting at the window) and was telling the 911 operator that Wendys was being robbed and then I saw the robbers with masks on behind the counter looking right at me so I figured it would be a good idea to drive away from the window before I get shot over some hamburger money lol. I looped around hoping to maybe get a tag number of a getaway car or something but as I drove around, they ran out and across the parkinglot and did 100 yard dash to the woods behind the Chinese resturant. They dropped a good bit of their loot running. I stayed right behind them and the police pulled in and caught up with us right as they hit the tree line. He jumped out...they were gone! Right on the otherside of the little strip of woods was an apartment complex. They got the dogs out and tracked them to a pile of more money they dropped and ran over... and lost the trail. Apparently they had a car parked on the other side. SO...while the cops were all milling around the woods, I got hooked into standing guard over the loot they dropped in the parking lot for about 2 hours (buncha payroll checks, Wendys corporate credit card and who knows what all else documents...they nabbed from the safe). I got interviewed by lots of cops and Fox news...and ended up calling the chinese resturant that I was parked in front of and ordered some food for delivery and made them walk it out to my Jeep lol....then they had to all bolt out of there because...what do ya know...another robbery with the same MO...right down the road a few blocks! Hope they get em this time

I couldn't imagine. I think I would have thought about bolting first and foremost and then picking up my cell. You were very brave. I want to see the news story too.

That's your pat on the back for a deed well done.  THANKS for being a good guy and not running from the situation. If more people helped, thugs would crawl back into their hiding places and stay there.
