Two unidentified males stole an undisclosed amount of cash from Chick-fil-A early Saturday after forcing the store manager to open the safe at gunpoint, according to a release from the Harford County Sheriff’s Office.

The first suspect is described as a black male, approximately 5-foot-6 with a deep voice, white cloth bandana around his head and face, black gloves, a black hooded sweatshirt and baggie black sweat pants. The second suspect is described as a black male approximately 5-foot-8 dressed all in black.

Rob a store before they open for business - the point during the day when the least amount of money is present. Brilliant!

I think the scariest thing about this is people are getting really desperate. You are seeing more and more robberies in places that was thought to be safe. No place is safe anymore, not with this ecomomy and so many people laid off and gas prices as high as they are. People do things they normally would not do when pushed to the limit. Now I don't know what this mans story is, but be aware of your sorroundings.

I doubt very much if this had even a remote chance of being a result of the bad economy. Did you read the article? I don't think these two idiots had a family they intended to support or a mortgage to pay with their new found riches. Wake up and smell the coffee. Anyway it was probably someone who obviously is familiar with the workings of this business, knowing there was cash on hand that early in the morning. No one lies in wait at a chick fillet expecting to score big @ 5:00 am get real. This is not a sign of the times, it's a sign of THAT culture.

@ G D,
I said I didn't know what the story was with these two. However since you are so arrogant to think that it is just THAT culture of people that rob, someday you will find yourself in a bad situtaion. Because YOU thought you were safe in a culture where THOSE people don't go. I don't think your coffee is strong enough, open your eyes, people are really stuggling more than ever now. Which can lead to some really stupid mistakes.

I agree with G D.... I'm one of THOSE who is "really struggling now more than ever" and robbing a place of business is not even an option. It's not a "stupid mistake", it's premeditated crime.

Seriously?? What is wrong with you people? Even a premeditated crime is a stupid mistake. And just because you have the common sense not to do something stupid that doesn't mean the man behind you in line does. That was all I was trying to say, you can get off your soap box now!

When I say that culture, a culture where there is no daddy around, and kids living with garandma (becaue grandpa is not around either) no supervision, no guidance, no morals and total ignorance towards others. And if someday I find myself in a bad situation, so be it, I will in fact rise to that occasion, thanks for your concern.
