Store employee helps police nab suspect after armed robbery in Columbia

An alert convenience store employee helped officers nab a suspect a few hours after an armed robbery in Columbia Wednesday night, police said.
The suspect went to the store after robbing a man earlier in the night and the employee recorded his license plate number and called police.
"The Turkey Hill employee's actions led directly to the arrest," Columbia Borough police Det. Matt Leddy said.

This is the final straw. I own and I am licensed to carry a concealed firearm. I have never carried it as a matter of routine but after reading this, I will be carrying it the majority of the time, especially when I take my walks in town. I would have no problem putting an animal like this down.

I second that! My husband has a permit to carry and I'm encouraging him to do so routinely.
