"As two customers looked on"??????? WHAT????? The customers didn't offer any help, like see which way they went on foot? . . . . . . . .or if they got into a vehicle or anything? WOW! TWO customers just looked on? WTF? This happened at 12:27 pm, in broad daylight, during lunch hour? I wonder if any relation to the Kragens robbery? That was an odd hour as well. I guess the time of day is irrelevant, but still strange.

No one knows how you would react to being a witness to a crime like that unless you have been there. I don't blame the customers in the store for not looking outside to see if the robbers were on foot or in a car. The robbers had guns and I would be more concerned for my life than anything else. I have been robbed at gunpoint while working at a store and the last thing on your mind is all of that, you are just glad the robbers left the store without shooting you. Your life is more important than money. It is a shame that we have so many robberies going on but I guess this economy if making people do crazy things. I'm just glad they didn't kill anyone.
