“A spike belt was deployed disabling the vehicle, a Dodge Caravan The two male occupants, ages 22 and 24, were taken into custody, one with the assistance of police service dog Dero.”

Too bad we can not install a GPS into them, and than we can track their movement.

Used to have Electronic Monitoring Program, but that went by the wayside in Corrections I presume. Probably enfringed on their rights, never mind the victims. They will receive conditional sentences or something similar and be in and out and doing what they do best. Creating problems in society! I know what I would do, but too many so gooders out there and the revolving door of justice would interfere with my process! LOL

Liberals will demand the trio are released and given money, free housing and dental.. because society failed them as kids.

They should be hanged!! Too many idiots like this out there

As usual, their court appointed attorneys will go through the same laundry list of excuses as to why their childhood sucked and they really shouldn’t be held accountable for their actions:
– Parent’s didn’t hold them enough
– Didn’t get the GI Joe they wanted for Christmas
– They were picked last for dodgeball

And thus, they’ll be out in six weeks knowing that getting caught for robbery and evasion, isn’t all that bad…

Police in North Carolina say a Pizza Hut employee used his own handgun to shoot and kill one of three armed robbers holding up the store.
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department said it happened early Sunday at a Pizza Hut restaurant near Interstate 85 in west Charlotte.

ATLANTA, Ga – A man who allegedly robbed a Cascade Road Family Dollar on Monday night was shot twice by a store employee, police say.
Atlanta Police say the man walked into the store around 9:55 p.m., pulled a gun and demanded the contents of the store’s cash register.

Down south it can be a suicide mission to do an armed robbery. So under the law in Canada, before the lefties and poets took over all 3 would be, and should be charged with armed robbery, and with numerous priors would be looking at 20 years in a Federal fun house. We’ll see in the near future what easy terms the crown counsel (future judge) goes for…
