They couldn’t have got to much,their supposed to drop money when there’s to much. Glad the clerk is ok.
a $100 buys you an 8-ball of meth. tweakers have destroyed this community. sounds like the rock guy to me. park and B ave is his houseless tweaker pad.
Livin’ in a tweaker pad, gettin yelled at by his dad!
Who is the rock guy ?
the guy that “tried” to rob it before with a rock collected from the riverrun landscaping adjacent to the apt. he is the same nut that went crazy in the old Ace and a handful of other criminal type shit that hits the news over the years.
AGAIN???!!! WTH is the attraction in Mac town???
Seems like this station gets robbed every couple days…
This one & or the one on Murray Rd!!!
Ill bet you five bags of pork skins they never find him.
I’m starting to think someone is marketing adventure travel tours and included is robbing the 76.
starting to think that more people have robbed the 76, vs. those that haven’t.
Maybe they should open a Robbery Training Academy there.
By now they could have a cage installed,for all the money they have lost would have paid for it self.
