An armed robbery suspect is in custody in front of the District Attorney’s office. The robbery occurred at a Dentist’s office at 1235 Garden Street, allegedly he had a gun.
Is there something in the air today – some strange behavior out there?!
oh my gosh that’s Dr. Stein’s office. Most selfless man and great dentist, + lovely staff. So glad they caught the guy.
Yeah, you’re right. In sure he only wanted that $60 for his electric bill.
Wonder what would’ve happened if we allowed dentists to arm themselves?
Just another responsible gun owner.
Just another insightful and original commentary. Perhaps if there were any available comprehensive mental health and rehab services in this country, he wouldn’t have felt the need to pick up a gun and rob a medical doctor for drugs. Just sayin…
