No Freaking Way: The 7-Eleven on Wornall gets robbed AGAIN!

Christine Vendel has the full report here. For those keeping score, this is the eighth robbery this year, on top of eight robberies LAST YEAR.

The store at 8901 Wornall Road was robbed for the eighth time this year on Saturday night.

Today, police released video images of the robber from the latest heist. Investigators believe some, but not all, of the crimes were committed by the same gunman.

In the latest holdup, the robber strolled into the store just after 10 p.m. Saturday and asked, “Can I still buy alcohol?” The clerk said he could, and the man brought a six-pack of Bud Light to the counter.

Instead of paying, he drew a gun and demanded all the money from the cash register.

After the clerk handed him $90, he fled with the cash and beer.

Last time he got $75 and some Fig Newtons. Again, if you know who this criminal mastermind is, please -- for the love of Moses -- call the Crime Stoppers TIPS Hotline at (816) 474-8477.

They probably won't do anything to fix the problem until one of the cashiers gets shot.

I look forward to hearing about the next one in a couple of weeks.

[Freddie]

The picture needs to be larger to get a
better look.

[mike]

notice the robber NEVER goes for one of those roller 'dogs? Stay away from those things. Instant heart atttack.

[noneposted]

If it is the same guy again and again, I would hand him an application with the money the next time.

[James Hart]

Sorry about that, Freddie. You're right, but that's just the size that KCPD sends out its images.

[Eddie B]

It's the slurpies. Gotta be the slurpies!

[mike]

If the robber hands the clerk a bag of Funions next, I've lost all respect.

[noneposted]

mike - hahaha, but that would be better than Cheetoes. The orange stuff can be stuck on your hands for days!

[LazyThief]

A 6-pack? Take at least a 12-pack, man! Or maybe a 12-pack was too much to carry.

[SAW]

That's awesome.....it's like he's doing his shopping and then decides to rob the place as an afterthought.

[X]

You'd think that sooner or later an officer would be getting a donut or coffee at just the right time. They've probably started going to other 7-Eleven's, where they feel safer.

if the 7-11 was really concerned about the robberies, they would then probably install some better cameras with pan, tilt, zoom capability on detecting motion

what about off duty security to guard $20 in tweekies.

[SAW]

Why doesn't this guy steal himself a ski mask the next time he's in. Let's change it up a bit man.

[CareBear]

Is it the same guy every time? Shoot he should at least steal an ice cream.

[G]

X KC pigs don't do 7-11 go by the Q T at 102 and 72 and Wornall anytime of day and there is always at least 1 there sometimes 4-5. I know because I go to 102 often myself. They get free drinks and donuts there.

[noneposted]

great idea SAW. And...some lottery tickets! If he scratched his way to some money, he could take a cab to a different 7-11.

X...where they feel safer..hahaha

[SAW]

I don't know about you guys, but I would take every bag of beef jerkey they had! I'm mental for that stuff...

I've got an idea. Back in the corner of the store, set up a sniper in a ground hunting blind,(camo of course, he'll never see it coming), and blow his brains out! Quite a crime deterrent, huh?

What's a tweekie?

[Big D.]

If the store had someone other than Isahama-oso-cameljockey, then they could OPERATE the pan-tilt zoom camera, get a close up.

Dunno.

What about die-bags in the "tweekies".

Later

[Grassy Knoll]

7-11 is just plain stoopid. If they'd give the guy more than $80 or $90 per robbery, he wouldn't have to to stick the place up so often. Duh!

[Betty]

Its a inside job anytime you need some extra dollars you go hit the local seven eleven

[noneposted]

grassy - HAHAHAHAHA

The cashier should throw in some condoms, the last thing we need is more of this guy.

And I would take the jerky, too. It is over 5 bucks a bag and oh so good.

This is just ridiculous! Why don't they stake out this 7-11! My step-daughters live near there and I'm sure that they go there periodically! Why don't they do SOMETHING about it???

[noneposted]

If she could start going to the Quick Trip noted above, that might be good. Or you could see if your step-daughters have a neighborhood watch and if so, ask them/help them stake it out.

I think they are doing something about it by bringing it to our attention and including the TIPS HOTLINE.

[SAW]

I had a friend who lived down the street from that 7-11. We used to drink across the street at this little dive bar called Flo's Polka Dot Lounge. I am pretty sure I saw that guy in there nibbling on his Fig Newtons.

[Brad]

It's because of service with a smile!

[noneposted]

Sometimes I would like to have enough money to quit my job and own a little dive bar. I would want it to be popular enough just to pay the bills, but not too popular such that it lost its diveness.

Plus, I would want it in a cool area that was cool, but safe, but not squeaky clean safe. And if people robbed me and asked me for all of the money in the drawer, I would say, "How about I give you half, cause I am going to need some to bond out of jail after I get threw kicking your A$$".

okay, I'm done. I really need to get my work done. But...if I had that bar, it would almost be beer thirty.

[WildWIly]

It says he enetered shortly after 10 but the time in the video shows 11:17. Is the KCPD this stupid or is 7-11 this stupid?

[noneposted]

maybe they forgot to add the line..

"..and after entering the store, he immediately altered the surveillance equipment's time stamp, which the clerk thought was odd but recognized him as a repeat customer so did nothing..."

[I]

SOB! I live on 89th up from that place! There are some apts. no far from there and it might be some of the riff-raff that live there doing that. CLOSE the damn place up! The 7-11 company does NOT let there emplyees be armed.

[NO comment]

has your step-daughter noticed her boyfriend leaving for no reason around say...11:45pm on Saturday nights once a month? Has he ever mentioned or complained about having the munchies but he's broke???

[a theist]

Any record of the ethnic origins of these robbers?

[Time to Be Serious]

Of course, if they hire a security guard, who happens to harm the thief, then the family will sue.

NO comment... Of course not wrong color for that!!!!!

9:43 - what are you talking about?

you idiots obviously the camera hasn't never been adjusted for daylight savings time or they just prefer eastern time.

[jon]

crime is hilarious! they got robbed again! he should steal ice cream! i would steal beef jerky! LOL! awesome blog dudes go crime!

[shoot]

I don't care if 7-11 allows it or not, the clerks should start packing concealed weapons. Shoot that scum, before he shoots one of them.

[noneposted]

jon - we are just letting off steam and living life. crime is sad, sometimes you have to laugh at things when you can.

It keeps getting robbed because it's probably an inside job, or a couple of crack heads. The robbers are getting a way with little to nothing. And yes the man in the picture is not black. White people are some of the dirtiest crooks period, that's why I will bet that it's a crappy inside job.

[Al Sharpton]

part of the problem is that its in a black neighborhood, no one there has a CCW permit. If this was going on up North, some one would have popped him on the 2nd or 3rd robbery...ATTENTION CROOKS WHITE FOLKS CARRY GUNS

[Pimpala]

I was wondering how long it would take before some simpletons switched to race... sad commentary.

[TC]

Have you read the paper lately? 6 homocides in 7 days...? Black folks carry guns too!

It's sad that the only time they say what color the person is,is when it is a black person but when it's white they don't say....
