Video in link

quote:

DALLAS -
Four robbers, two of them armed, entered Pepe's Grocery on Bernal Drive in West Dallas.

The store owner fought back and shot one of them.

He called 911 but waited for a long time. Police never came so he went home.

On Sunday night, surveillance cameras from in and outside the store show four men with masks charge in.

One had an assault rifle. The other had a pistol.

Sounds like it was the dispatch's fault.

eeesh, that's awful.

Hey wickowick...looks like the admins responded to that Argentina Parakeet spam thread faster than the cops did from your thread. Well done TD Admins!!

Seems like cops, with all their training would be overly anxious for an actual robbery in process call

Why is no one else seeing that it says "assault rifle" and they are describing an SKS? It's not scary looking enough to be an assault rifle! I'm even more surprised Fox News is reporting it with that title... Shame shame...

But good to see the owner fight back! I wonder what criminals are gonna do when paper money is obsolete.
