Good Lord! When are these thugs going to trip up? They are mocking Chief Webster and Mayor Ireton. We dare you to catch us. Catch us if you can.

I feel for the people that work in public places. You never know when it'll happen to you! This is crazy. Salisbury is not the town we all knew only a few yrs ago!!!!

Salisbury HAS GOT TO BE the bank robbery capitol of the US (at least, per capita).

Yikes, that's my bank. I was just there! Hope everyone is OK, they are nice people.

This is why we never go into a bank. We always go to the drive thru. I hope the people at the bank are okay.

Come one come all criminals to Salisbury and surrounding area. Looks like this is the best place to rob a bank after all even if they get caught our system won't really punish them. Little smack on the hand and they promise not to do it again. Its become just news anymore seams like when i was a kid that did not happen around here now its a weekly thing.

12:32, they will "trip-up" when a few of them get shot dead. Fear is all that will work for some people.

These banks need to get back to having armed officers at the front door. If these thugs see an armed man inside and ready, there not going to try it.

Right it's going to cost money to hire them, and it's probably cheeper just to hand the money over. It insured. But someone soon is going to get killed. Is that cheeper?

Yep ... it's only a matter of time 'til somebody id shot or killed ... hopefully it's a criminal and not an innocent civilian/employee.

At times like this the police forces have to get extremely pro-active and stop waiting for crime to happen. They have to hit it head on in force, and we have to give them what they need to do that.

Somebody's already been shot and killed. Remember the convenience store robbery a couple of months ago? Salisbury is just going to hell. Last Friday it was a donut shop and a dollar store. Today a bank. Who knows what'll it be tomorrow, but the situation doesn't seem to be getting any better.

Is that cosidered Salisbury or Fruitland? Maybe county?

That's because you have a piece of sh!t Chief of Police who watches crime go through the roof and every criminal is laughing their A$$ off because they know they won't get caught.

Think of it like this Folks. If Sheriff Lewis was in charge, what do YOU think the difference in crime would be?

He wears a uniform and is PROACTIVE. Chiefy shows up at a scene, (if he even shows up at all) and sits in his black cruiser and makes everyone walk up to his vehicle.

The man needs to go! Your Mayor is the key reason crime is on the rise because he too is not proactive!

Oh sure, it's easy to sit on the outside and critisize but the stats do NOT like. Salisbury WAS the 9th most dangerous City in America per capita. Do you think the rating got any better over the past few months! His numbers on crime are going up as fast as my hits!

Kudos to Sheriff's office and allied agencies for a quick response and apprehension.

Watch and learn SPD!

It's in the county. Not the CITY!
So are you to hypothesize the same about MIKE LEWIS?

Webster don't go out in the rain , get real.

The main suspect (who robbed PNC) was arrested behind a house on Allen Rd. near Peggy Neck Rd. ...apparently with black BB gun

Looks like Mike got his man, takes one to catch one.

I bet its a chick in the silver car.

Why don't they take a poll to see which banks HAVEN'T been robbed (there can't be many). I'm sure that's where they'll hit next. Don't put them in jail. I don't want to pay for their meals, clothes, education,etc. String them up.

joealbero said...

To the anonymous commenter who just tried to claim he was with Mike Lewis earlier, you're a liar. Mike has been at a funeral for the fallen Officer from Georgetown. Nice try though.

This is the reason the city needs to go under county police supervision. The WCSO was on this guy from the time that they got the description. They had officers responding from all over the county.The crook drove his car into a cornfield off of Allen Rd. They had containment within minutes,and it only took about 45 minutes for them catch him.Cudos to Mike Lewis and Sgt.Mike Carey for their fine work.

Webster must be proud of his city. Oh wait, he dont even live in this shiiit hole. Cant blame him on that Joe. Webster, your a POS. Joe, I wonder how many ppl would purchase a shirt if you were to sell them that says, "Webster is a POS and got to go!" I would buy one.

So let me understand. There are stores, Banks, and citizens being robbed every week from butt holes who rather steal some other hard working person's money then get a real job and feel the satisfaction of earning a paycheck. MMMMMMMMM Where can I get low standards like that? I can't I was raised with morals.
