Charleston, West Virginia, tops the list with double the arson counts from 2006 to 2016, even with a population decrease. In fact, nine of the bottom 25 cities have had a decrease in population, which means their crimes per capita have increased all the more dramatically.\r\n
\r\n \t
25 Cities Getting Safer<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nThese cities experienced the greatest decrease in criminal activity for the six types of crime YLS measured. The city with the most improvement from 2006 to 2016 is Salisbury, Maryland. It improved substantially in several areas, including a 100-percent decrease in arson and a 63-percent decrease in burglary.\r\n

Armed Robber Walks In<\/h3>\n38-year-old Mina Farag was working behind the counter at Habibi Deli in the Bronx when an unidentified man believed to be in his 20s walked in with a bag and started looking around.\n\n\"He was like going around the store. His bag was open. In the beginning I thought he was trying to take something from the store,\" Farag recalled to CBS New York<\/a>.\n\nThe man instead walked up to the counter, produced a gun and started demanding money.\n\n\"He showed me his gun and said, 'Give me money,'\" Farag said. \"I tried to calm him down. I told him the money's right there.\"\n
New York Deli Clerk Fights Back<\/h3>\nWhen the suspect started reaching for the money, Farag decided to act.\n\n\"Once he tried to grab the money, I grabbed his hand with the gun with my two hands,\" Farag said.\n\nThe surveillance footage shows Farag and the suspect fighting for the gun. Another employee and other customers were inside the store during the incident, but they left in fear for their lives.\n\nEventually, the video shows Farag gaining control of the weapon. Police said the suspect fled the store, with no cash, after Farag grabbed a hold of the gun.\n\nDuring the scuffle, Farag suffered minor injuries to his face.\n\n\u201cNothing too dangerous, thank God. Nothing internal. Just a scratch here and that\u2019s about it,\u201d Farag said.\n\nThe NYPD is still looking for the would-be armed robber. He is described as an African American male in his 20s, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and a black backpack.","post_title":"VIDEO: New York Deli Clerk Snatches Gun From Armed Robber","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"new-york-deli-clerk-armed-robber","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-05-31 10:42:18","post_modified_gmt":"2023-05-31 10:42:18","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.dev.athlonoutdoors.com\/2018\/09\/20\/new-york-deli-clerk-armed-robber\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":96102,"post_author":"351","post_date":"2018-08-21 11:25:38","post_date_gmt":"2018-08-21 15:25:38","post_content":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vpqstBs2BDs[\/embed]\r\n\r\nNo one ever said that criminals were smart or brave. So it is not too surprising that an armed Indianapolis robber ran when his victim pulled a .40 caliber handgun.\r\n\r\nDecor Furniture Store owner\u00a0Doyle Stinson cooperated when the robber walked into his store pointing a gun, handing over his cash. However, the man didn't believe that Stinson only had $10, so he forced him to the back room of the store.\r\n\r\nThis was a mistake, as this, of course, is where Stinson stores a .40-caliber handgun, which he pulled after hitting the silent alarm.\r\n\r\n[in_content post=\"108008\" alignment=\"align-left\" \/]\r\n\r\n\u201cI knew when he pulled the hammer back on the automatic weapon there wasn\u2019t a bullet in the chamber,\" Stinson said to Fox 59.<\/a>\u00a0\"I know the sound.\u201d\r\n\r\nStinson aimed at the fleeing robber, but didn't take a shot because a boy was in front of the store.\r\n\r\n\u201cIf you\u2019re shooting a 40 caliber, it\u2019s going to go through him, through this merchandise, through that window, and what's beyond that window,\u201d Stinson said.\r\n\r\nInstead, Stinson dialed 911 and pursued the robbery<\/a> suspect. Another store owner drove up at that time, and Stinson jumped into the car. The pair chased the armed robber suspect for a ways, breaking off only when it became dangerous.\r\n\r\nPolice are searching for the suspect, who fled in a dark blue Chevy Trailblazer, with $10 for his efforts.\r\n
Following Gun Safety<\/h3>\r\nStinson made a conscious decision to not fire on the Indianapolis robber, which was the proper action in this case. Shooters are responsible for every bullet that leaves their guns, even in self-defense. The NRA's gun safety rules<\/a> state:\r\n\r\nAlways keep the gun pointed in a safe direction.\r\n\r\nAlways keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.\r\n\r\nAlways keep the gun unloaded until ready to use.\r\n\r\nKnow your target and what is beyond it.","post_title":"Furniture Store Owner Turns Tables on Indianapolis Robber","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"indianapolis-robber-gets-tables-turned","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-05-31 10:43:18","post_modified_gmt":"2023-05-31 10:43:18","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.dev.athlonoutdoors.com\/2018\/08\/21\/indianapolis-robber-gets-tables-turned\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":false,"total_page":1},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"jnews_block_23"};
