COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. A good deed for a Colorado Springs man turned into a terrifying experience Friday evening.
According to police, the man picked up a couple near Jet Wing Drive and Astrozon Boulevard around 6:40 p.m. because he was concerned they were cold.
The man agreed to drive the couple about a mile down the road, but when they arrived at the destination the man pointed a gun at him and took his car.

Think about this exact situation.
The driver would have to have his weapon in his left hand, under his coat, and aimed at his passengers, to have a chance at defending himself.
Otherwise, Once he’s exited the car, he’s then firing at fleeing suspects.
Everyone nowadays has a cell phone so don’t even stop.
If it looks like an emergency, call 911.
My days of charity are LONG GONE. Too broke to give a $#!t.
Kudos to the reporter.
First time in decades I've seen an article like this that bothered to give sufficient details to help the public avoid and/or turn in such dangerous individuals.
It is good to see not all reporters are lazy liberals.
Maybe the man was the one who ran away from the batman shooter.
If there is 2 people and one is a man there is not much urgency to pull over in most cases.
Turns out she was casing the houses and if the home was well furnished and not protected by an alarm system (or dog), chances are her boyfriend would return later to burglarize it.
Now here's where they showed some real genius. She would always get the phone number from the homeowner so she could give it to her boyfriend in case he needed to call back. This was how they got phone numbers that were unlisted. To verify nobody was home, they'd call that number on the night of the burglary and if nobody answered, they would know that the house was likely empty.
Homeowners never suspected a thing and the two of them didn't get caught until they had pulled some two dozen successful burglaries. Their big mistake was they didn't move to a new town fast enough and they eventually got bagged in a police stakeout.
So the car owner who has “white privilege” is griping about his car being “transformed”. The nerve of some people!!!!!
You got me. LOL.
I really didn’t think the /s was necessary.
“White-Hispanic couple.”
Ooops.
What does this mean?
>>From there we can figure out the rest.
Yeah, I used to think the same thing about the prostitution going on over on Pikes Peak.
Very shady part of town.
One of each partner.
