When I watch these deliveries I’m always amazed they don’t get hit more often. It is a low budget operation.

He was last seen wearing a shoulder length dark red wig, teal colored scrubs, a short sleeved white printed surgical top with a long sleeve white shirt underneath and white tennis shoes. Time to start scouring the tennis courts for suspects.

Police describe the suspect as a black male, 5'10- 6"0, dark complexion. He was last seen wearing a shoulder length dark red wig, teal colored scrubs, a short sleeved white printed surgical top with a long sleeve white shirt underneath and white tennis shoes. What a bizarre description. Had he mugged a nurse or doctor and stolen his clothing? Or maybe ripped it off a patient on the way into surgery? Or maybe escaped from a prison hospital and mugged both a doctor and a patient on his way out?

It’s a cheap disguise worn over other, more snug, clothing.
IMHO.

I think the suspect did grab 4 bags of money, from what I have heard on other news outlets. It is disturbing that this occurred in broad-daylight, at the most affluent shopping center in the growing, prosperous Greensboro area (the other shopping mall in GSO has been overrun by gangs). What is even more disturbing than many of the comments on WFMY’s discussion section for this story are justifying the robbery and shooting, citing “the bad economy”. Greensboro is a growing bastion of political correctness and a Democratic stronghold, with 6 colleges and universities in the city.

I would never get behind the wheel of an armored car for a measly $11 or $12 dollars an hour. The pay is horrible for such a dangerous job.

Happens every time I shoot at a shopping center, too.I swear, it took me nearly a minute of puzzling over that headline [Armored Truck Driver Dies After Shooting At Greensboro Shopping Center]...
'Why was he shooting at the Greensboro Shopping Center?' ... "How did he die? - did the Shopping Center shoot back?'
before I figured out what they meant.

I was walking along in a shopping area when a different armored vehicle company was making a pick up at a Target store . . . never saw guns . . . just one guy got out of the back of the truck, went into the store, picked up the money bags, walked back to the back of the truck, used the code and got back into the truck.
I was standing there thinking . . . what an easy target for theft. Where's the TWO men with one having his gun out to protect the money carrier?
I guess that's only in the movies.

Exactly what Ayers and the Weather Underground did during their terror campaign.

People don’t want “safety and security” as much as they want to be able to say they have it. It interests me. People don’t want to hear about what’s involved, what the thinking is like, what has to be done if you want to be reasonably safe. In transporting money as in defending against terrorists, they want to shuffle the job off on somebody else and then mock that person as he tries to do what they said they want.

The job should be held by highly skilled, very fit and aware personnel. Nothing against anyone doing the job now, it takes guts, but I see too many easy targets and I don’t look for them It’s like chumming for sharks and using a Popeil Pocket Fisherman, just asking for trouble. They need another man on the truck with a pumpgun to cover the courier’s back.

I agree. But people won’t pay for it.

Well, we had the Oregon bank bombing yesterday where two policemen were killed, the arson at Sarah Palin’s church on Friday, and today’s armor-car heist/murder in Greensboro. Seems the Ayers/Weather Underground legacy is already having an influence, even before Obama’s inauguration.
