Score One For The Good Guys
Pembroke Pines - "Police announced Monday that a robbery suspect shot by a store clerk over the weekend has died in the hospital.
Norman L. Thompson, 21, was taken to Memorial Regional Hospital after being shot in the 12:30 p.m. Sunday hold-up at the Super Stop Food Store at 6460 Pines Blvd.
He was pronounced dead at about 6:00 p.m. Sunday, police said.
Thompson entered the store with a shotgun and an accomplice, Joe Willie Walden, 28, police said.
They demanded money from store clerk Bruce Flanders, 54, of Pembroke Pines. Flanders took out a handgun and fired twice at Thompson, hitting him once in the abdomen.
The two suspects fled, but deputies found Thompson in an alley behind Boyd's Family Funeral Home at 6400 Pines Blvd..."
How thoughtful of the thug to drop dead next to a funeral home, and if only the local yokels would have just wheeled him around to the back door and politely knocked, they'd have saved a trip to the hospital.
