i have been out there recently and the young man who was held up is still very upset by what happened, and i can understand why. what i dont get is why this was never mentioned in the newspaper, nor was it reported on the tv news? This is a news item and something that should be out there so other businesses are aware of what may be going on in the area.

I couldn't find any coverage on this either. I don't how the local news outlets missed this one.
