Some bozo showed up at a local convenience store dressed in an orange jumpsuit marked inmate on the front and state penitentiary on the back, wearing jail flip-flops, and hand-cuffs, pretending to be an escaped inmate. He was hassling people for a ride. It ended up being a stupid YouTube stunt.
A unarmed customer was concerned for the safety of his 8 year old son. The customer put his son behind the counter in the store, went out bladed the bozo, put his hand on his hip like he had a gun (dangerous) and ordered him to the ground. The bozo complied. Others called 911.
Besides the bozo being lucky he didn't get shot or tazed, what's your opinion? If you were there as a civilian CHP, would you draw your weapon to hold someone that appeared to be an escaped convict?
Man's attempt at “YouTube stardom” falls flat
