Well that was dumb! The cash box is locked & has trackers, the phone can be tracked. Not very bright!

When I was in high school in the early 70’s one of our teachers husbands owned that 7-11 – one night during the course of a robbery the owner shot and killed one of the robbers

Armed robbery can be a serious matter. Glad the store owner was uninjured. What a life-changing experience for him.
