This gas station is listed among the unsafe businesses in OFCC's Do Not Patronize While Armed database. Perhaps if they had posted a "no hammers" sign? Or better yet, a "no robberies" sign?

Robbery by hammer in Uh'ville
UHRICHSVILLE Two men, one armed with a hammer, robbed the Starfire Service Station on W. McCauley Dr., Uhrichsville, early Tuesday.
According to Sgt. Vince Beal, police were called to the station at about 2:57 a.m. on a report that the business was just robbed by two men, one with a hammer.
Beal said a female clerk told them the man with the hammer was wearing a dark hooded jacket with something white over his face.
The second person is described as being about 5 feet, 7 inches tall and was wearing a white or light-colored hooded jacket.
Police were told the man with the hammer struck the instant lottery dispenser breaking the glass before ordering the clerk to give him the money.
Once the clerk emptied the cash register, she was ordered to pick up the register drawer and remove any money that may have been there as well.
An undisclosed amount of money was taken.
The clerk said she did not see a vehicle when the two left the store or which way they fled.
Anyone with information on the robbery is asked to contact police at (740) 922-1212.

When all you have is a hammer, all your gas stations begin to look like nails.
Well, at least it wasn't an assault hammer.
I used to live about 15 minutes from Uhrichsville. DUH'ville is an understatemnt. Imagine being in a town filled with all the dumbest people in America...then add in all the "You might be a Redneck" stereotypes.
That, my friend, is Uhrichsville, OH. (don't forget about the neighboring town of Dennison, same place, different name!)
or a semi-auto hammer.
Note to self: Avoid Uhrichsville, OH.
Who's the guy with the retread around his neck?
That would be Rep. Tom "The Hammer" Delay.
All your gas stations are belong to us!
Anti gun people don't get it. Weapons can be just about anything but they only want to ban guns. They are only as smart as Hanoi john. He leads them in the vacuum that they are in.
