You’ll Never Take Me Alive, Coppers!

You'll Never Take Me Alive, Coppers!In Florida, a 12-year-old boy armed with a wooden toy rifle held up a convenience store and nearly escaped with a fistful of cash before police apprehended him. The underage miscreant pointed the gun at the cashier, demanded him to empty the register, and even thanked him as he left. Luckily, a deputy on duty noticed a boy matching the robber’s description walking along the side of the highway and approached him. The boy tried to make a break for it , but was overpowered and apprehended. Soon after, police tracked down the hidden toy rifle and missing cash. The boy was booked and transferred to the department of Juvenile Justice.

    Wow, kids these days. I guess when they say “Don’t mess with kids these days, they have guns now” is true.
