Mediccoin Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 I wonder what, if anything but luck on the bad guys side, did they do to his car to make it break down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Probably a coincidence that the car broke down. They were probably following him to his home - a all too common happening after coinshows and such in the FL area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

28Plain Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 If you carry an inventory out to sell it in public, this can happen anytime. It could happen to me on any weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiffibunny Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Very smart for a criminal to have a distinctive tatoo on his head. Very conveinient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 The gentleman who was robbed is a member of my coin club and displays coins frequently in the area flea markets and such. It's a blessing that they didn't follow him all the way home, he has young children at home. That could have been a real tragedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a blessing that they didn't follow him all the way home, he has young children at home. That could have been a real tragedy. If they follow me home, the tragedy might just be all theirs. I carry about $10,000 in inventory to and from the flea market, true enough, but I also carry a 1911 with three magazines. Out in public, away from my family, I'd probably let'em have the goods to avoid hurting anyone or being hurt myself, but at my home with my wife and child to protect, I'd see to it that an intruder gets hurt before anything happens to my family. Robbery is a rough way to make money. I'd make it as rough for the robbers as I know how when it's on my own place. Glad your friend came through it OK. I hope that never happens to him again.
