Or drop safes that ensure a minimal amount of cash after a certain time. Some clerk making minimum wage should be expected to deter a robber, armed or otherwise.

How about locking up stores after 7 or 8pm especially in repeated robbery locations. If people need gas pay at the pump, if you need smokes or a candy bar go to a grocery store.

Cigarettes and candy bars are where gas stations make all their money though, especially in Fargo.

Or you add internal security to your stores with thick plexiglass partitions, push through money slots, etc.  For the companies, the costs probably outweigh the benefits for "customer experience" and the relatively small amount of cash these robberies take.  It's also easier from a liability perspective if the employee just gives the money without any hassle.

Lots of service stations in larger cities have the partitions. I've always wondered if this resulted in an increase in shop lifting.

Cab drivers have been attacked here for years. You couldn't pay me enough be a delivery driver in this town. Crime is going up as the population grows, we need more police and more neighborhood watch rallies. People need to lookout for each other.

When nothing is going on in Fargo, trouble comes to town from GF?

Circling the cop pointing a gun at him, esp if that gun looks even remotely real, makes this guy a candidate for dumbest criminal of the year.

 

Only 3 shots fired from the cop...........he should have emptied his gun on this JA.
