Thugs Rob Academy Sports in..Cool Springs!

[Guest uzzi]

Looks like Thugs came to pop the "bubble" we enjoy down here in the Brentwood area. When good Samaritans try to intervene, the theives pulled a gun on them and told them to "back off."

WOW.... these guys were bold. Hitting a store that also has large gun, hunting and fishing departments.

It would appear these guys were only interested in the athletic/sport clothing.

And as for the SHIF, it probably could have. Most likely there were several concelled customers in the store.

When some customers, along with several employees, chased the BGs into their cars, the thieves waved a weapon at them and told them to back off.

If there were any folks carrying out there, they sure practised restraint. It could have got real ugly.

Unfortunately, if any HCP holder would have pulled a weapon, the thugs would have claimed THEY were in fear of their lives and were only defending themselves.

Protecting the store's property wouldn't have been a very wise thing to do. It didn't appear they were endangering anyone's life while they were in the store. It was only after they had been chased outside did the weapon appear if I understand correctly.

exactly! and they may have also had them concelled while in the store.

In the parking lot it could have turned into a shootout.

However, once they stick weapons out the windows, all bets are off.

They don't pull this type of stunt in San Antonio, Texas; the last time they tried it turned into a dead perp in the parking lot.
