Robbers smash-and-grab their way to two jackpots
Except there’s been a crime. Nothing too heavy. No gore. Just two guys who stole two video poker machines. There’s never been a crime wave in this small town but there were surveillance cameras saw the whole thing. The robbers pulled up outside the Waterloo Exxon and Daiquiris Shop in their Chevy truck. For those of you who don’t know Ventress, that’s right next to the levee on the corner. Now these two climb out wearing masks - shows foresight and planning. The smaller of the two has a gimpy leg but that’s not going to hold him back. The big guy (local CSI have him wearing a size 13 boot which matches his impressive build) smashes through the glass frontage like it was a movie set fake. They pick up the two machines. This is very impressive. Each video poker machine comes in at a slimline 300 pounds but these two guys exit their truck and drive away with the two machines in the back in 33 seconds. That’s 33 seconds!!! Of course they’ve been used sledgehammers, without this they probably wouldn’t be able to do this. A bit of cheating there, but they made a few thousand dollars for their efforts. So if you meet a small guy with biceps to die for and a limp in a bar down in Louisiana, he’s buying the next round.
