A drunken crook got a little more than what he bargained for when he tried to hold up a Dallas cleaners.
As the drunken crook entered the dry cleaners with a gun, one of the Owners motioned him toward the cash register and told him the money was all his. Meanwhile, the owners Wife had ducked into the back.
The business owners were more than happy to give him the money, but this crook apparently had other things on his mind as he grabbed the owner by the wrist and told him “Turn around, we’re going to the back”
The crook motioned for the owner to head into the back room. As the crook held the gun to the owners head, the Wife appeared behind them with a 9mm. She told him to stop or she’d shoot.
As the crook turned toward her with the gun, the owner grabbed his wrist and a struggle ensued. The wife handed the 9mm pistol to the owner who promptly fired off 3 rounds, one of which hit the crook in the face. The crook then staggered out into the parking lot where he collapsed. EMS arrived and tried to revive the crook, but he died.
The dry cleaner remained open, the owners filling out police paper work while taking care of their usual duties as a small business. Later in the day just before closing, the owner of the Dry Cleaners, Joseph Baggett, washed the crooks life blood off his parking lot and into a storm drain with a garden hose.
A fitting end for a crook don’t you think?
