Both titles are as the sources had them ( and different ), I did add portions of the secondary title ....shortened to fit within the constrains imposed here.

From the Los Angeles Times:
Man Shot Trying to Hijack a Train
# Armed with a bow and arrow, he's arrested after seizing a freight engine in Montclair, police say.
Using as the title :
Man Shot Trying to Hijack a Train
I do not see the other article show up on the first search result panel.
"How many times does somebody come and take over a train with a bow and arrow?"
probably only once.

Of course, since this is CA, he'll probably be sent to counseling, and will be on the street by the end of the week.Not before he gets a group hug and the counselors make sure his self esteem has not been damaged!
Since I live in CA, I get to make fun. Out here dodgeball has been outlawed on all campuses because the game causes one not to feel good about oneself! Not kidding!

I do not see the other article show up on the first search result panel. Ahhh, now I understand. You searched. And I would have added to the title myself; using a bow & arrow to take the train is much more eye catching. Most folks use brackets to modify the title when they add. peace -todd

... rob trains that Americans don't want to rob.
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
I just can
t resist:
1. Betcha that gives the perp a case of "limp wrist" for a while.
2. Never bring bows to gun fights.
On a more serious note, could this be a case of a would be suicide-by-cop situation?
Cudos to the cops who managed to deal with a risky situation with minimal use of force. If they were in the 'Glades, I'd buy their donuts tonight.
Good example of gun control, too - a wrist isn't a large target.

"LOL, and if he turns out to be an illegal alien, President Bush will no doubt give him amnesty, and a job Americans just don't want."
And let's not forget the free medical care, resident tuition for the foreign national illegally here committing illegal acts, and there are even special mortgage programs so the illegals can become home owners.
Truly, Bush is most magnanimous, exceeding generous, and every inch the compassionate conservative. We should always remember to give credit where credit is due, shouldn't we?

No problem, we all do it and you have posted so many fantastic articles for sure.
I always look for key words like "Hijack" to see if it is there.

By the way, did the guy end up being some Islamic cupid gone mad or what?
