Friday morning feel good stories
From Lee County, Florida;
The robbery happened around 6:28 p.m. on the 13000 block of Hampton Park Court, deputies said. The victim searched for the suspects and later found a red 2002 Honda Accord as the suspects seemed to be leaving from another attempted burglary.
When the victim approached the vehicle he recognized his stolen gym bag inside and removed the keys from the vehicle so the suspects were unable to drive off, deputies said.
A nearby homeowner, Brad Davidson, was alerted by his barking dogs, exited his home with a firearm in hand and ordered the suspects to remain until deputies arrived, deputies said. The suspects complied and remained at the scene.
“I was holding them at gunpoint,” Davidson said. “They were pretty much scared, they weren’t going anywhere.”
From Greeley, Colorado;
The man who police say was shot by the resident of a Greeley home he broke into Feb. 19 now faces a felony charge as he continues to recover in the hospital.
Timothy Fetters, 34, is charged with one count of burglary of a dwelling, a third-degree felony, according to a news release from Sgt. Joe Tymkowych of the Greeley Police Department. According to the release, the Weld District Attorney’s Office filed the charge Wednesday.
The release stated that Fetters at 5:23 a.m. tried to break into a house in the 1700 block of 15th Street. The occupants of that home, Dorothy and Thomas Peterson, heard him break in and discovered he broke a window in the home. When they investigated, the release stated, they found Fetters in the back porch area of the house. Thomas Peterson held Fetters at gunpoint with his handgun while Dorothy Peterson called 911, according to the release. While police were on the way to the house, Fetters moved toward Thomas Peterson in an aggressive manner, the release stated, and Thomas Peterson shot him once in the torso. When police arrived, they found Fetters collapsed outside the home. They also found evidence that supported the Petersons’ account of the morning.

Don’t move means “don’t move”.
Who said, “don’t argue with a man with a loaded gun”?
It sure was nice of the reporter in the Greely story to remind us SEVEN different times that the LEO’s “release” said this or said that.
Talk about having a need for filler words. Judge Judy should give him a lecture about that.
Today’s Journalists. Meh.

Post that on the billboards around Tulsa, with the words “Don’t be this guy. Get a job.”
Great aimpoint.
His forehead looks like the surface of the moon…..the rest of his HAHAHAHAHAAAGAAAHAHA “Face” …well, He is going to feel that for the rest of his shitty life, “Guarenteed”….
Is the goal now to be a career criminal as early as possible?
Whatever happened to that TV series ‘Scared Straight’? Did that do any good? Just askin’.
No. TV shows have much less impact on a child’s behavior than the presence or absence of a father.
It’s a sad thing to say, but I’m waiting for someone to start styling himself the reincarnation of Billie the Kid.
I don’t think it’s that far off.
Not even one heading to the great ghetto in the sky today…
Sad day for taxpayers…
None of these pukes deserve to be breathing my air today…
SFPD has created a nationwide ammo shortage.
