re post no. 20...

Most people are scared when they are victims of violent crimes, especially when they see a gun. HOWEVER, with all those people in the diner how come there is not info on the suspects on these news reports. I have not seen any report saying they are in custody.

Let's look at a HYPOTHETICAL print-out of a suspect on a HYPOTHETICAL crime report:

WMA
20
5-10
225
Shaved head, goatee, wispy mustache
blu skull cap, olive grn jkt/baggy blk pants/Nike type running shoes
1 gold tone heavy metal chain necklace
tt: none observed
weapons: 2 hand guns
words "FU AH All your money belongs to me"

Ok, if I was a reporter hearing the description on a scanner or reading it on a crime report print out; I would be telling the worried public in our HYPOTHETICAL situation that authorites are looking for:

A whte male, in his 20's, around 5-10 and 225 pounds. The suspect has a shaved head, a goatee and a wispy mustache. The suspect was last seen wearing a blue skull cap, an olive green jacket, baggy black pants and Nike type running shoes. He had a heavy gold metail chain necklace around his neck. The victim advised he had 2 handguns. Anyone seeing this HYPOTHETICAL suspect please contact your HYPOTHETICAL law enforcement authorities.


And that's my point. That was a horrendous crime. What do the suspects look like so the concerned public can be on the lookout for these guys.
