What Cindy was too humble to mention in this message is that she was the
crime-smacking soccer-mom who made chase in her mini-van and made all
this possible.   A round of applause is in order for some first-rate
community policing!

> Two men were seen sprinting out of Super Elite across Grand Ave. at 
> 8:00pm last Thursday night. A resident of Lyndale saw them while 
> driving home on 33rd. The two men ran North in the alley west of 
> Grand and the resident followed in her mini van to see what two 
> sprinting men in the dark were doing. Just as the resident drove into 
> the alley, a small car with its lights off sped out of a driveway 
> right in front of her van. 911 was called and license plate and car 
> description was given and the lights on the car stayed off as they 
> sped away. The car was followed for a few blocks until it was lost 
> around Pillsbury approaching 35th. With 911 dispatch still on the 
> cell phone, the resident went back to the corner store to check. 
> Through the door could be seen a mess all over the floor and going in,

> the resident saw the empty cash register hanging off the counter by 
> it's cord and behind the counter lay the employee, leaning against the

> back wall, dazed and trembling. He was ok. Police arrived within two 
> minutes. Mo, the store owner who was at home was now on his way there.
> 
> So, the two had come in to the store. One put a gun to Mohammed's 
> chest and demanded the money. Mohammed thought he was going to be 
> shot so he took hold of the gun and the robber's hand and pointed it 
> back toward the robber. The second man then threw the register at 
> Mohammed and he fell back against the wall, the register drawer opened

> and spilled a couple hundred dollars out behind the counter they 
> hopped over or came around grabbed the money, barked threats and took 
> off running across Grand Ave.
> 
> Crime Lab came for evidence and they took the tape of the full color, 
> three-security-camera footage. The store stayed open and then at 
> 10:00pm the police found the car with matching plates in the parking 
> lot of a hotel in Bloomington. They went in and arrested the three 
> men inside their hotel room. The next day, Mohammed had a difficult 
> time making a positive id so they released all three. A prosecutor 
> has been assigned to this case. Sergeant Carpenter has been assigned 
> as the detective. By the way, in the City of Minneapolis right now 
> there are 3500 reported robbery cases being handled by SIX 
> detectives! Detective Carpenter was told to please put this one at 
> the top of the list as it seems such a tight case. As of this 
> morning, the detective unit is still waiting on the crime lab to 
> transfer the footage from VHS to CD and produce the images for 
> Sergeant Carpenter. Also, today a warrant was issued for a Lyndale 
> resident whose photo is on the store's wall from a previous incident 
> at the store one month ago and who Mohammed is convinced was one of 
> the men who robbed him. This man was not found in the hotel room.
> 
> 
> Here is where you all come in to this. It's time for all of us to 
> help make sure this one gets attention. Let's see this one through.
