Escapees Captured by one of SPD's
Finest
On December 7th, 2007 at 2:46 AM, while responding to an
unrelated call at the Tiger Express, PFC. Hardy observed a red in
color Ford F-150 at the gas pump that matched the description from a
BOLO earlier in the evening that originated from North Carolina
concerning 2 escaped convicts. Accompanying the truck were a while
male, who was pumping gas, and a black male, sitting in the
passenger seat, both of which matched the information put out in the
BOLO. As PFC. Hardy made eye contact with the subjects, the
black male started fidgeting and moving around in the vehicle while
the white male moved to put the gas pump between himself and PFC.
Hardy. PFC. Hardy, having been advised that the subjects were
considered armed and dangerous, and fearing a confrontation of the
gravest kind was about to occur, positioned himself at the corner of
the store, drawing his weapon. PFC. Hardy advised both parties
to lie on the ground and both complied after the passenger, who
initially indicated he would run, was advised that PFC. Hardy’s
police K-9 would be released if he did so. Both subjects were
taken into custody without further incident.
