I’m just guessing here, but it wasn’t really Dawn Castro that wrestled the burglar to the ground, was it?

An amusing artifact of cut-and-paste.

This sounds like another greedy businessman assaulting a minority customer.

Reminds me of when I was a teen working in a gas station in South San Francisco, lots of time at night through early morning. One boss had me carry a loaded revolver in my pocket for protection against thieves. Luckily I never had to use it.

So one time the boss is there with me, he yells out to me to toss him the gun. Some punks stole a case of oil cans and took off in a car. The boss takes off in pursuit with his car. About 10 minutes later he comes back looking timid. I ask what happened?

"I chased them into a dead-end street and pulled the gun on them. Four guys jumped out each with their own guns, so I jumped back in the car and got the hell out of there!"
