So much for those gun laws in New York.

Police rushed to the scene after getting a 911 call from someone in the pharmacy's parking lot. When they arrived, they found two employees and two customers dead, said Suffolk County Police Department's Chief of Detectives Dominick Varrone. No one inside the shop survived.

When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

Does a robbery ever go right?

Perhaps when the intended victim kills the perp...but not in New York...

how come we never hear of robberies gone right?

They said the suspect put the drugs in a black backpack, yet they offered no descrition of the suspect.

[Bon mots]

Wow. A full description! I wonder why?

Police said the male suspect, who is still at large, allegedly stole prescription drugs from the store. He is described by authorities as a white man with a thin build, approximatley 5 feet 8 inches tall, and was either unshaven or had a dark beard and mustache and short dark hair. The suspect was wearing a white baseball hat, sunglasses, a dark-colored hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans, dark shoes and was carrying a black backpack. The suspect fled on foot eastbound on Southaven Avenue.

Oh, he's white. That's why they printed it.

In my mind the ONLY reason to kill everyone during a robbery is that one or more of the victims could ID you. And a crank-head would be so wired prolly he'd forget about security cameras. And a Heroin Junkie needing a fix would be so screwed up, cameras are the last thing he'd think of too.

And from the picture I say go for a heroin addict. Meth heads (I've seen) don't have beards as they can't scratch at the invisible bugs crawling under their skin with one.

And mr police try looking 'local'. Some mutt from NYC's streets wouldn't know about this area of Long Island unless he's been, or lived there, right?
