Police received a call from the clerk around 3:40 a.m. reporting that a someone was trying to set the gas pumps on fire at the station located in the 2500 block of East La Palma Avenue.

Convenient.
Non lethal shotgun round. That sounds like a big old ouch!
From the video it looks like the store is a total loss.
“The suspect eventually entered the store and started to smoke cigarettes behind the counter using his burning shirt to light them”

My cousin had her car stolen at that gas station the assailant had a lighter and pulled out her gas nozzle and said to get away im taking your car
“I think this even surpasses Florida Man standards.”
Not a fair comparison. FloridaMan often performs his feats completely sane, stone sober and clean!

“Convenient.”
Well, they DO call them “convenience stores”...
He was probably visiting from Florida.
A good example of being based.
At least the subject wasn’t a liar.
That’s just methed up.
You really hate California, don’t you?
Using your own blazing shirt to light up a smoke.
Doesn’t get any cooler than that.
Shoot on sight. Or is it site? Aw hell, just shoot it. Quickly.
