In LaGrange, Ga., on the morning of May 13, a man walked up to the counter at a convenience store and handed the clerk a note that read, “Put all the money in a bag.” The clerk responded by pulling out the firearm he kept beneath the counter, whereupon the would-be robber grabbed his note and fled. Police are still searching for the suspect. (wtvm.com, Columbus, Ga., 5/14/26)
