Spotsylvania store robbed

Two men robbed a 7-Eleven clerk who was on break, police say.

Date published: 10/29/2009

A convenience store clerk was robbed at gunpoint early Thursday while taking a break outside his store, police said.

Spotsylvania Sheriff’s spokeswoman Liz Scott said the incident occurred about 2:20 a.m. at the 7­-Eleven at Salem Fields. The clerk was standing outside when two men approached him.

After having a brief conversation, one of the men pulled a gun from his waistband and pointed it at the clerk and demanded money, Scott said. The other suspect went through the clerk’s pockets and took an undisclosed amount of money.

One of the suspects then went into the store and took money from the cash register. Both were last seen running toward Salem Fields Town Homes.

Both suspects were described as black men in their mid 20’s with thin builds, 5 feet 8 to 5 feet 11 inches tall wearing black pants and black shirts. One was wearing a black hat and had a thin goatee. One had black and red Nike Air Jordan shoes and the other had on multi-colored tennis shoes. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Solvers at 540/582-5822.

You couldn't pay me enough to work at a 7-11 at 2 am. And yeah, fugyou, it's scary isn't it? Lots of trash in the area.

Welcome to the reality of what comes with today's version of civilization. Who are these men? It could be your next door neighbor. What else is new, or what is it you don't get about today? As long as you are not the victim, what does it matter to you or anyone else in harms way? This is a world of ME, not YOU (plural). Watch out where you step. It could be all the difference on what is and what you think and belive should should be. Hope it don't bother you too much, but civilization IS, not WHO.

WTH? (posted by fugyou , Oct. 29, 2009 4:14 pm)   
So, we have a major crime happening every single day in our area now? Who the heck are all these men?
