Well, if we’re going to let people walk around wearing balaclavas during the day, aren’t we promoting letting them run around wearing them at night too?
Do the staff at this Company get “danger pay” or at least $25 per hr given this is the 42elewenteenth armed robbery since it opened?
I hope they consider going cashless. The poor employees must be traumatized.
No! Cash in legal tender and going cashless is not the way to go. Every time you use your card the bank charges you. It’s cheaper and easier to budget in these financially challenging times to get out cash. Why should individuals and businesses change because a small number of people can’t behave themselves!? Crack down on this type of crime. Lock up the culprit and throw away the key. If they aren’t local deport them. Im sick of this antisocial behavior.
Agree. How about installing cameras if there aren’t any, and a bullet-proof acrylic or polycarbonate “glass” panel between the server and the public.
“The Kebob Robber” strikes again!
They don’t sell Kebob’s.
Can’t we just pick the low-hanging fruit and have an armed PC on permanent stakeout at this restaurant?
How about we just look at the CCTV system we paid for?
Should be able to track you straight to where you end up…
Looks like right now it’s the opposite, they have an armed robber on permanent stakeout at this restaurant.
Probably from the same ex-JDF pool of imports as many in the RCIPS anyway
Its normally the Kebab Truck at Selkirk Drive that gets robbed.
Can we just take a second to highlight the unfortunate irony of this comment? Robbed less than 12 hours later.
