Restaurant owner shoots, kills robber
Victim selection FAIL. I remember, as a wee sprog, frequenting a Chinese restaurant owned by "Uncle Bobby". He owned a couple restaurants out where my dad was stationed as a MA state cop, and was one of the only establishments open past midnight back in the day. Dad would swing in and pick up a bag full of food for the guys on the midnight shift, and got chummy with "Bobby" over the years. Even broke up a couple fights between the local kids and the rival high school on more than one occasion.Bridgeport, Conn. (WTNH) - Police say a Bridgeport restaurant owner shot and killed one of two men who tried to hold up his establishment Sunday night.
The shooting happened at Peking Restaurant on Wade Street around 9:30pm. The deceased has been identified as 21-year old Allen Dixon of Bridgeport.
Just seeing what the cooks were using out back would make me think twice about hitting a Chinese joint - knowing how friendly they tend to be with the local gendarmes just seals the deal.
Dead Goblin Count: 68.
That is all.
Thanks to my buddy mopar for the tip!

You're a Trekkie. Did you hear Patrick Stewart is opening up a chain of Chinese Restaurants? They will be called "Make it Tso's"

Sad thing is, the two employees will likely be fired.
Maybe they should have hit someplace safer, like a donut shop.

One of them might get away with it.
"WBT-Radio is reporting that the Pizza Hut worker who shot the suspects had a law enforcement background."
If he's currently a cop and is delivering pizza on the side, he's probably required by his department to carry at all times. I suspect that in that case, Pizza Hut would let it slide.
I sense a new reality show . . . would-be robbers versus chopper-wielding Chinese cooks . . .
