OKLAHOMA CITY -- A fast-acting convenience store clerk helped foil a carjacking in Edmond Friday.

Police said that two men jumped into a car near 2700 North Kelley and pulled a knife on the woman at the wheel.

The store's owner saw it happen and held one of the attackers at gunpoint until the police arrived.

One man, Tarterrion Williams, was arrested on a complaint of armed robbery.

Another man, Rufus Nelson, was also questioned. Nelson is in police custody on an unrelated drug charge, but was arrested near the crime scene.

I wonder if this clerk will be fired?

sorry...now I see it was the owner that did good

The VPC, the Commie Mommies, and the Brady Campaign to Reduce Defensive Guns Uses, had no comment. Neither did the mass media, nor did NPR, nor Diane Feinstein.

These zany Aframerican lads were discriminated against when they were named, so they can't be held accountable for the "Tarterrion and Rufus" show.

"Tarterrion"???? Where do they get these names? Is there a special "Baby Names" book I am not allowed to see? LOL

bump

[JSteff]

Didn't George Carlin (years back?) do a skip with a Rufus character in it?

"Tarterrion"???? Where do they get these names?

With some of these names, it seems like certain parents deliberately pick names likely to get mis-spelled in a police criminal-records database search. Perhaps they figure their kids will thank them for it some day...

[MissAmericanPie]

That makes sense.

[teeman8r]

usually the names are a combination of freinds or family names ie moeisha might be derived from father moe and mother trisha erego moeisha. tarrterrion is a long shot

But if the store he owned was part of a chain, the company could revoke his franchise rights. The long arm of the limp-wristed liberals may yet strike.
