Lucky for you she's gone then. :-)
why did it take the acso 9 minutes to get to this robbery?? the sheriffs office is only 1 mile away.. thats why we are going to have a new sheriff...
How much money did he/she get away with?
A robbery on tax free weekend, thousands of vehicles full of kiddies wanting to go to lunch,I'm surprised they made it there in nine minutes. This particular weekend is almost as busy as Black Friday and December 26.
