Anti-Wimp: ATM robbery doesn’t go well for robbers

Friday afternoon a prepared Texan was visiting the drive-up ATM at Chase Bank on SW Military Drive in San Antonio when two people approached and tried to rob him. He used his firearm to defend himself and shot both of the robbers, ending two crime careers as both began the eternal dirt nap on the scene.

“It was a robbery that didn’t go well for the robbers,” said San Antonio Police Department’s Chief of Police McManus.

“This is a trend throughout the country right now,” McManus said. “We believe at this point – again, this could change – that this was a jugging incident.”

KENS reports that “Jugging occurs when thieves target people at businesses or banks. After a person makes a purchase or withdraws money, they are followed by criminals who wait for an opportune time to swoop in and steal. This would be San Antonio’s fourth jugging incident in less than a month.”

In a written statement, a spokesperson for the San Antonio PD encouraged “citizens to be mindful of their surroundings.” “Pay attention to what is happening around you,” the statement said.

All the better for Bexar County and all the better for Texas!
