"They just whooped the hell out of him."

An alleged armed robber has just had the beating of a lifetime, at the hands of nearly 30 women inside a Shreveport beauty school.
Blalock's Beauty School instructor Dianne Mitchell says, “Oh, I put something on him baby. He wasn't coming up out of here and telling nobody he robbed us and got away with it."
Mitchell says the man walked in pointing a gun and telling the women to clean out their purses and hand him the cash. That's until, she tripped him.
Afterwards she says, “I beat him with a stick." They all beat him with sticks, table legs and curling irons.
Mitchell says, “I was telling the students, ‘Get him! Get him!’"
Officer Eric Swartout describes what happened, “Basically, they're hitting him with everything that wasn't nailed down, he was getting hit with."
Mitchell says, “They was grabbing everything they could, but I said, ‘Get back! I got him!’ I wore him out with that stick."
Shreveport police spokeswoman Kacee Hargrave says, “The suspect was trying to get out of the business and, as he was trying to get out, they kept pulling him back in and beating him."
Police arrived and hauled the man out to a cruiser where he bled onto the trunk while being handcuffed.
"He’s going to need some stitches,” Swartout says. “He had some pretty good swelling and knots on his head, a lot of lacerations on his face."
Paramedics transported 24-year-old Jared Gipson of Shreveport to a hospital where doctors listed him in good condition. Once he’s released, police say they’ll book him into jail on a charge of armed robbery, where he'll likely have a lot of explaining to do - to his cellmates.
Owch!
My bad!
That struck me as hilarious too. Those girls weren't gonna let him get out without a good beating.
This story makes me feel good. Something about it happening in a beauty school tickles me. And those women, what a bunch.
You are funny.
People don't beat people, curling irons do.

I really think that Diane, the instructor, did it all by herself. She really put the hurt on the fool.
LOL. Appropriate response.
I just love reading stuff like this.
Southern women are the greatest !
Thug #1, Bubba: I was runnin' from the cops in a stolen truck. They rammed me off the road and the truck flipped. I got thrown out when it was flipping and I broke my arm.
Thug #2, Lance: I grabbed a dancer's butt at the nudie bar. The bouncer tried to take me outside and I fought him. Then the other bouncers and some off-duty cops kicked my ass.
Thug #3, Jared: Well, I went into a beauty parlor to rob them and the hairdressers beat me up. It hurt and I was crying. Thank God the cops finally rescued me.
(As cajungirl posted, this is definitely the FEEL GOOD story of the day!)
Good condition? They need to practise their beatings. He should have been dead, but good work anyway, ladies.
