Shot Fired During Robbery of Eureka Store
A masked gunman robbed the Stop and Shop on Wabash in Eureka at approximately 11:15 last night. He fired one shot inside the business and left, according to scanner traffic. The suspect is a white male adult who is approximately 6’3″ with a thin build. He carried a black revolver and wore a black mask and black clothing.

Stop n Rob…
Yep, glad no one was hurt, they need to catch this guy
They will! Or he will pull his gun on the wrong person at the wrong time and he will end up dead!
“All men have an emotion to kill; when they strongly dislike some one they involuntarily wish he was dead. I have never killed any one, but I have read some obituary notices with great satisfaction.”

Excellent.
Shoot and shop
Slaveway.
Wow must be a new record
Couple more shots and he will be out if bullets
this is so traumatic for those employees, both that have been robbed and the ones waiting to be robbed. Stay safe out there people.
Well said.
Quick strong-armed robbery and then back over to the Hillary rally?
She can still pull it out
Jeez, let’s stop it. Both sides of this side of this political mess need to stop conflating. Everything bad does not come from one side. We can almost all agree that being robbed at gunpoint is terrible. Please don’t somehow conflate your anger and fear at the protesters and your anger and fear of the robber. These are two separate things with not even a shred of evidence to connect them.
(And, yes, liberals should stop conflating in the same way.) This doesn’t mean ignore real concerns. This means stop trying to justify your anger and fear by blaming the other side for problems that have existed long before either one of them was a twinkle in their daddy’s eye.
I agree. But just one question: Do mommies ever get the twinkles? I always hear about the dad’s twinkle.
Maybe you should have paid more attention in Health Class
Maybe you should have paid more attention in Health Class.
Mommies have sparkles.
I do, too.
You have my sympathies.
Amen!
But this woman a beer!! Great response!!
I agree with you Kym! We need to come together as a Nation and until we do everything is going to stay the same. For one, everyone needs to get over the 2 years of incessant TV, billboard, radio and any other related ads and one ups by both sides. Get over it and as Paul said “Come together” Not “Paul of the Bible” Paul McCartney of the Beatles!
oh right…NOW you want us to shut up and sit down after your people in the House conspired and refused any actions the President supported , vowing to block everything he did…and NOW after your guy won, the one with months of lies about President Obama’s citizenship, you know, the one the elected by a majority of citizens ?
Then the constant decades of lies and distortions about the Clintons…and now WE have to shut up and all get along?
The President was a class act in dealing with your sides obstruction…some call it treason..and you spit it back in his face.
Just one apology for any of that?…not one from the people that did it. Not one.
Pathetic.
OK, I get it, but no provoking.
Shoot and Loot, Tweak and Sneak, Pick and Stick, Stab and Grab, Bob and Rob, Stash and Smash.
Stop and Crap.
The police need to review the tapes from places which DO have security cameras, because this guy apparently hits places that don’t.
He’s obviously scoping the places out, review all the security tapes people, you’re looking for a maroon car with a white sticker on the back and a tall slender man who will be looking at or for all the cameras.
If they’d review all the other places, they’d find his face and maybe even his license plate.
BEST COMMON SENSE IVE HEARD SO FAR !!!
I don’t think it was the stop and shop, I seen cops and the news at the Patriot on the corner of Broadway and Wabash…
39 Wabash is the address where the robbery took place.
To damn many robbery’s going on!!glad no one was hurt
The store employee should have a loaded handgun with a round in the chamber and safety off, in hand at all times. They can raise the handgun each time a customer comes in, that why they can get the drop on the robber.
Better pay a lot more than minimum wage for a job like that….and I suspect I wouldn’t be keen on walking through a door knowing that someone was pointing a gun at me.
Kym; You need to move back to Eureka to help stop this!
