Man disarms armored car guard, steals cash at southern Dallas Family Dollar

Anjing Banfaests... this is a classic example of not paying attention to people and your environment. Also where was the second guard? I always thought there were two, but anyway maybe this guy was successful to disarm both guards. I would think that some more training on how to cover each other might be in the companies future, what to do you think? Anyway, I would think that some more martial arts training or hand gun disarms or simple weapon disarms might have been of some value here... I presume the trade off here is personal safety but then why do we have guards if they don't put up a fight?


Man disarms armored car guard, steals cash at southern Dallas Family Dollar: "

Police are searching for a man who robbed an armored car guard at gunpoint this afternoon as she picked up a bank deposit in southern Dallas.

Officers were called to the Family Dollar store along Cedar Crest Boulevard near East Kiest Boulevard about 1:20 p.m.

Investigators believe one of two female Garda armored car guards had entered the store to pick up a deposit. A man who was already inside the store purchasing gum waited for the guard to get a money bag.

'He came up from behind her and disarmed her at gunpoint,' said spokesman Senior Cpl. Kevin Janse.
