I never missed one “Leave It To Beaver” when I was growing up. I was impressed by how Ricky could sing and get the girls.

Wrong show. The Nelson family had their own show and it did not include The Beave.

Yeah, that was a bit confusing, but I think ‘the customer’ refers to the female customer he’d previously ordered to tie the hands of the female employee.

Just how much money did the perp expect to get at a tanning salon? It's a not a cash intensive business is it?

Typical street thugs are operating with IQs of around 80. They don't put much thought into either planning or getting away with their crimes. They act on impulse. He was likely in the vicinity of the salon when he suddenly had the urge to rob it.

Unlike the biggest robber of all who takes billions from taxpayers with only the stroke of a pen!

(I posted this locally as I’m on the border)

Fellow liberal-tards and Dem lightweights of Illinois, why is the hero who stopped the assailant not also charged with a felony and in jail?

After all, it is your tyrannical anti-freedom and anti-Constitutional gun laws put in place by your elected ruling class that edict:

* It is unlawful to possess any firearm or ammunition without a valid FOID.

* It is unlawful for any person to possess any firearm with intent to use it unlawfully against another.

* It is unlawful to carry or possess any firearm in any vehicle or concealed on or about the person, except on one’s land or or fixed place of business.

* It is unlawful to carry or possess any firearm on any public street or other public lands within the corporate limits of a city, village, or incorporated town, except when: an invitee thereon or therein, for the purpose of the display of firearms or the lawful commerce in firearms.

Does the hero hold a Firearms Owner’s Identification Card (FOID)?

Regardless, this person is still violating all the proceeding counts; look what more gunfire did, another person dead, and you let an unauthorized gun carrier in a public place discharge the weapon against the perp unlawfully???

Regardless of the hero’s intentions, I thought you elected your beloved statist officials to take care of you with the domestic police force? Because clearly the populace of the nanny state Illinois do not believe in personal protection, what makes this circumstance any different, is it not the law enforcement and all other agencies to provide your safety?

You people make me sick and you’re a bunch of elitist phony hypocrites, which is why the fallout of blood spattered innocents as a result of non permissive areas for firearms rests ENTIRELY ON YOUR SHOULDERS AND WHO YOU ELECTED.

If it had not been from this hero citizen most likely the killer would have gone on to kill again.

No thanks to the incompetent Will County police and prosecutors who have a history of wrongly arresting innocent persons and sometimes prosecuting and wrongly convicting the innocent to the detriment of all of us when the real killers remain free amongst us.

Slain Orland Park robber’s gun is a match to ‘honeybee killer’

12/14/2010, 6:04 am

The Daily Journal staff report

Gary L. Amaya, 48, of Rankin, who was gunned down during an attempted robbery in an Orland Park tanning salon, is suspected of being the “honeybee killer.”

The ballistics tests on the .38 caliber revolver found at the scene of an Orland Park tanning salon attempted robbery reveal it was the same gun used in the Oct. 5 shootings in Beecher and Indiana that left one man dead and two injured, a Chicago news station is reporting.

Police tests showed the gun of Gary Amaya, 48, of Rankin, who was killed in the weekend robbery attempt, was the same used in the shootings and authorities are searching his home, suspecting he may be the “honeybee killer,” WBBM CBS- 2 news said a police source told them.

Amaya was killed during a failed robbery at the L.A. Tan salon at 15633 S. 94th Ave. in Orland Park.

Earlier today, Will County sheriff’s police would say only that they have been asked to review the Orland Park case, according to spokesman Ken Kaupas, but neither Will County or Orland Park police would comment further.

Still, the speculation from “unnamed sources” in news reports was adding up.

* The gun used by Amaya is the same caliber used in the Oct. 5 shooting spree, according to Orland Park police.

* Amaya’s truck, a 1992 light-blue Chevy truck, also matches the description of the one linked to the shootings near Beecher and Lowell.

* Rankin, where Amaya reportedly lives, is 75 miles south of Beecher and about 82 miles south of Orland Park.

* Ballistic test results should determine if the gun matches that used in the October shooting spree.

* Police moved faster than the evidence warranted once before in this case.

Will County police arrested Brian E. Dorian, 37, three days after the Oct. 5 killing in connection with the Beecher shootings. Charges against Dorian, a former Lynwood police officer, were later dropped by Will County State’s Attorney James Glasgow after further investigation cleared Dorian as a suspect.

So it is no surprise that police were not saying much Monday.

But what police would say is that Orland Park police responded to an armed robbery call at 6:30 p.m. Saturday from the tanning salon where they found the alleged robber suffering from gunshot wounds.

Surveillance video from the salon showed an armed man with a rope entering the business and ordering a customer to tie the hands and feet of a female employee. Minutes later, the gunman pointed his weapon at a male customer who had entered the shop. The gunman reportedly ordered the customer to tie the male customer’s hands together.

A fight ensued and the robber was shot twice by the male customer, according to police. The robber was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead at 7:30 p.m. Saturday.

No charges have been brought against the shooter, according to police.

A spokesman for the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office identified Amaya as the victim.

On Oct. 5, a gunman killed 45-year-old Rolando Alonso and wounded another man at a rural Beecher construction site. Forty-five minutes later, a man in a similar pickup truck shot and wounded farmer Keith Dahl near Lowell.

The man was nicknamed the “honeybee” gunman because that was what he discussed with Dahl before shooting him.
