MOTHER TAKES ON CAR THIEF
Last week a San Jacinto County mother was going into the Brookshire Brothers Grocery Store in Coldspring. As she approached the entrance she noticed a male getting into her truck. She immediately returned to her truck with her small child in her arms. Once at the truck she pulled her Glock pistol out of her diaper bag and held the male at gunpoint until San Jacinto County Sheriff’s Deputies arrived. He was arrested and charged with burglary of a motor vehicle. Torres is well known to law enforcement for his prior charges and convictions.

TPD says self-defense possible in 45th St. bar homicide
By Lexi Letterman, Melissa Brunner and Victoria Cassell
Topeka Police say they’ve talked to everyone believed to be involved in a Friday morning shooting at a South Topeka bar, and self-defense is a possible consideration.One person was killed and another injured in the incident.
Topeka Police Department said a caller reported a disturbance and gunshots just before 2:30 a.m. Friday at 45th St. Bar in the 4600 block of SW Topeka Blvd.
Officers arrived to find Raymond Davis, 29, of Topeka dead, and another person wounded. The second victim is expected to recover.
By Friday afternoon, TPD said they identified everyone involved, and there was no ongoing threat to the community. They say the investigation is ongoing. Once complete, they’ll send their files to the District Attorney for review, with the possibility of a self-defense consideration.
A TPD K9 officer was also conducting an investigation about a half mile away from the bar at 49th St. & SW Topeka Blvd. where a traffic stop had occurred. Authorities confirmed to 13 NEWS that it is all part of their investigation into the shooting at 45th Street bar, but would not comment further at this time.
Topeka police say it’s the seventh crime reported at the bar this year following two aggravated assaults, two assaults, a robbery, and a drug possession.
We reached out to the DA’s office to see whether the bar would be declared a public nuisance.

In Pax River it was named Butler’s Place.

First story:
Good on Mama Bear for protecting her own.
BAD on Mama Bear for apparently NOT locking her truck door! (I’m making a big assumption, the story doesn’t specify)
It may have been the norm 50+ years ago to not lock doors (house, car). But today, no matter how short a stopover, LOCK THE DOORS!
(This has been a PSA of the Papa Bear Protection Organization)
Parts of San Francisco not locking your car door is back in style. If the car is locked they just break a window. Some people even put signs in the window saying, “Doors Unlocked Please Don’t Break Glass”
Strange new world.
Almost changed your board name to “Hammer,” CM. Well played.

AW1 knows stuff 😉
It was the same in Naples, Italy in the late ’80s.
People would leave their car doors unlocked, remove their car stereos, and leave their glove box doors open so that thieves could see that there was nothing inside the car to steal and wouldn’t damage their vehicles trying to break in.
Topeka……once again, Kansas is attempting to wrest “Florida Man” status away from Florida.
Ah, yes. Butler’s Place. I’d almost forgotten about that shithole.
“It’s rated for use against light personnel and vehicles in the military”
No heavy dudes need worry.
Thumbs up on the picture! My nephew took that (one for M80 belted four-and-one, actually) to grade school as a lunchbox just to piss-off the liberal teachers. They made his mother come to school and get the thing after lunch. All the kids thought it was cool.
“…well known to law enforcement…” Remember that much ballyhooed, “3 strikes and you’re out” law? Yeah, that’s worked out about as well as the “War on Drugs”. Too bad Mama Bear didn’t deliver a TSP.
See a lot of news feed stories on Kansas Kritters Killing. You’d a thought that “Bleeding Kansas” was so 1850s. Maybe Senator Jim Lane should send in Cpt Terrell’s Redlegs in to clean up that territory?
Benito, meet lamppost.
“…put a ban on…” Yeah, see Drugs, War on. “Shall not be infringed.” Seems pretty clear to me.
East Tah-puke-a, South Wichita…same same.
