72 year old woman robbed at gunpoint of $2 in Farmingville, NY

Police are looking for a man who robbed a 72-year-old woman of $2 at gunpoint in a Farmingville parking lot.

The robbery took place Sunday at the Kmart on North Ocean Avenue about 3:40 p.m.

The woman, whose identity was not released, was walking in the Kmart lot when she was approached by the man in a dark-colored vehicle, police said yesterday.

Police said the man had a $10 bill in his hand and asked the woman for change. She said she did not have any money.

At that point, police said, the suspect told the woman if she didn't have any money he would have to shoot her.

The victim opened her wallet, police said, and the man removed $2 and drove away.

The man was about 18 to 20 years old with short dark hair and was wearing a dark-colored T-shirt, police said.

Sixth Squad detectives are asking witnesses to call the Sixth Squad at 631-854-8652 or Crime Stoppers at 800-220-TIPS.

This "reporter" (I won't call him what he actually is) is not too good at this reporting business. I could do more investigation in five seconds than this nitwit did.

Hmmm, besides the fact that all he (or is he a she?-no way of telling anymore) merely copied a press release, he left out a very key ingredient to the story. Can you guess what that might be? You see folks these politically correct fools don't care if this perpetrator is caught. Unless the perp fits the right mold. And these papers wonder why no one will buy their rags. In case you hadn't heard Newsday was also caught lying to their advertisers as to the papers circulation.

Anyway this copy boy copied the story from an already BS PC press release and then PC'd it some more, just for good measure.

But we on Long Island are use to having Newsday and our politicians be the most PC that our money can buy. It seems to me if you were searching for someone who has committed at least one known felony with a probably an illegal handgun you might actually give the person's race. But you'd be wrong.

We must conclude that the Police Commissioner of Suffolk County, NY really doesn't want to catch this mutt. But if the perps complexion were say a little lighter, why I guess all involved would be all over trying to solve this case. What a joke law enforcement has become.

Remember folks, as you buy that paper and pay that tax bill, the "elites" are always watching out for societies best interests.

Without further ado I present the official press release:

"Incident: Woman Robbed in Store Parking Lot Location: Kmart Parking Lot, 2260 North Ocean Ave., Farmingville Date/Time: Sunday, May 3, 2009 at approximately 3:40 p.m.

Suffolk County Police Sixth Squad detectives are investigating the armed robbery of a 72-year old woman in a store parking lot in Farmingville.

The victim was walking in the Kmart parking lot, located at 2260 North Ocean Ave., on May 3 at approximately 3:40 p.m. when she was approached by a man who was driving a dark-colored vehicle. The man had a 10 dollar bill in his hand and asked the woman for change of the bill. She said she did not have any money. The suspect then told her if she didn’t have anything, he would have to shoot her. He then pulled out what appeared to be a handgun. The victim opened her wallet and he removed two dollars and drove away.

The suspect is described as having a tan complexion, long face and 18 to 20 years old. He had short dark hair and was wearing a dark-colored t-shirt. Sixth Squad detectives are asking any witnesses to this incident or anyone who may have come in contact with this suspect to contact the Sixth Squad at 631-854-8652 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-220-TIPS."

So if you see "the tan man" with the long face (possibly sad 'cause he only got $2.00, report it to the police.

We are hurtling into insanity. Hold on tight.
