After a very long day down at Durham City Popo Station, I am now free to post the events that happened to me late Tuesday night at the NorthGate Mall, in Durham NC.
After I picked up a bracelet at Durham Jewelers for my wife’s birthday, I headed back to my car at the far end of the east parking lot. After approaching from the back and getting in I see a piece of paper taped to my back window. So I turned the car off and got out but as soon as I did, the hair on the back of my neck when strait, when I realized that I didn’t see any paper when I got in. Only one other time have I ever had that feeling, was when I pulled over to help a lady on a NC back road after a day of hunting, and that didn’t go to smooth either. Anyway, head on a swivel left, right, six, movement to my 4 o clock, turn, short squat guy, and a tall shinny guy + pipe advancing quickly from around the front of the car, backstep, draw, off safety, issued verbal warning, fellows withdraw. All of this happened faster than you could read that pervious line.
Since I don’t carry a cell phone I drove around to another mall entrance and called the Popo. As per job description, Popo filled out report, asked why I had a gun, and other remarks and happenings that I don’t care to share, and was taken to the local substation, to see if I could ID the would be Robin hoods. Come to find out that there is a was rash of car jackings all over Durham with the same MO but my was the first in a few months. Mark gets into car, sees taped paper on back window, mark gets out and leaves keys in car with car running. Mark gets thumped from behind, and car is driven away. Well at least the desk sergeant gave me a “good to go†before I went in, but then I was grilled about why I thought I had to pull my gun. I was there all night.:banghead: Six years of anger management paid off last night and this morning at that Police Station. Oh, and don’t ask me where my gun is either.
It’s all right I‘m not mad 1 one thousand 2 one thousand………., I got another. I also have my life and my car
