Easy Getaway, As Long As They Don't Stop For A Hot Dog On A Stick
-
This short item is just one of a long series of such stories, about a bunch of masked, armed robbers who barged into a mall jewelry store in these parts and smashed-and-grabbed expensive watches out of display cases. And every time this happens, I wonder how -- mall jewelry stores are not exactly easy to escape from, or shouldn't be, since you still have to make your way down the mall and out the door to get away. It raises a good question: Do they have ANY security to guard against armed robberies at shopping malls? Why do so many of these happen in broad daylight, and why are so many seemingly successful? And are we safe at the mall if people can just go right into a store and grab expensive items, then run? (Daily Breeze, Torrance)
