Robber on the loose in Madison

The Madison Police Department just issued the following press release:

On September 19, 2013 at approximately 10:28 am officers of the Madison Police Department responded to a report of an armed robbery in the parking lot of the Regions Bank located at 109 Webster Circle in the city of Madison.

Upon arrival officers learned that the shift manager of the Burger King restaurant located at 1874 Main Street in Madison was in the parking lot of the Regions Bank in her vehicle about to exit to make a deposit of funds from the restaurant. The victim stated a black male, approximately 16-17 years of age, thin build, tall, wearing a black t-shirt and gray hooded sweatshirt, approached her at the driver’s side of the vehicle displaying a small dark colored handgun demanding the deposit money. The victim stated she complied with the request after which the suspect fled the scene on foot in an unknown direction.

Officers of the Madison Police Department, with the assistance of the Madison County Sheriff’s Office as well as the Metro-One helicopter conducted a search of the surrounding areas for the suspect but to no avail. During the search Madison Central High School, located near the bank, was placed under a level 1 security alert by the school’s principal. This security alert is no longer in place.

As of this time the exact amount of the deposit funds taken is still being determined. Investigators of the Madison Police Department are reviewing surveillance video from the area around the bank as well as seeking possible witnesses. Anyone with information related to this incident is asked to call the Madison Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Division at 601-856-6111.

Madison the city is LOST!

Not exactly a bank robbery here so much as it's a robbery at a bank. Madisonites would probably prefer it to have been a bank robbery, though.

It seems like the robber sure did get lucky finding someone to rob at 10:30 in the morning who happened to have a bag of cash, and who must have been alone in the parking lot (apparently no other witnesses), and who didn't pay attention to the direction he fled, all while he was able to hang out in a hoodie in 85-degree weather without drawing attention to himself. Did he have Skittles, too?

My money (see what I did there?) is on the manager taking the cash or, less likely, an inside job where a BK employee told someone when the manager would be making a bank run.

Or maybe this 16-17 year old is just extraordinarily savvy. And magic, given his apparent ability to disappear into thin air. *poof*

Something similar happened a few years ago with a BK manager, except there was a carjacking involved. Turned out it was all an inside job and the BK manager was one of the players.

Hasn't that Burger King been robbed before? Or was it the one in Ridgeland?

Simply a matter of time before the Jackson Democrats start laying waste to Madison as they have to South and West Jackson.

Probably a current or former employee who knew the routine and followed the lady manager there.

I'm all in on this being an inside job. Remember the "robbery" at the Renaissance awhile back? Inside job. Sorry Jacksonites, as much as you want to gloat, there will be no end zone victory dance for you.

I'd put a dollar on the theory that it is an inside job.

Wait till Sam's Club is open...its just silly to think criminals respect the laws in Madison county but not Hinds...and to think that criminals don't have cars!

I don't ally with any political party. I do vote, with cognizance of all the candidates, and yes, I lean more to the left - not always. Now, how you can associate this robbery with a particular political party says to me you are a political bully, nothing more. Too bad you have to blame everything on politics. You, whether Demo or Repub, are part of the problem. You run your mouth with an agenda to disdain a party (and a Capitol City) because of crime in a crime-ridden area? Bad folks are among us, just more so in impoverished areas. Don't attempt to denigrate a party with your snide remark.

Hey BOZO at 4:54. The "Democrats" 2:24 is referring to is code for blacks. Duh.

I can feel the property values decreasing now...inside job? jeez a 16-17 y/o happens to be in the bank parking lot with a gun and unescorted manager shows up with deposit. If those things aligned by happenstance. that hooded you man should have bought lottery tickets

Same BK as last year when the inside job manager went to jail. Perp was caught in the woods behind Haughty Pig trying to circle back around toward BK to get into another car. This is a friggin' repeat. Dale Danks' two million dollars says both perps (inside and outside) are democrats. Also likely there was nobody in a hoodie at all. They need to bulldoze this damned BK anyway before J-State turns it into an all nite, sleep-in diner (like several eateries on north state street) and shooting range.

Maybe when KF posts a follow-up he can also post the results of the toxicology tests Madison has waited over two months for. No media will touch it.

I'm waiting as well. Has an official cause of death been listed yet by the ME?

something to remember this is the same BK where the manger was robbed by two you black males that Madison P.D. and Madison S.O. found in the woods that was a inside job. Makes me wonder did it happen again. Did anyone see the bank bag. Did they search her car, to many places to stash a bank bag.

5:35 pm finally some honesty!
Those who once wore sheets and used the N word now wear cheap suits or camos and smuggly use " Democrat" as a perjorative so they can deny being racist. They also turned " liberal" into their code for " commie" and claim they are Republicans or conservatives not Kluxers.
They managed to fool some Yankees, especially in the media, and those with IQs below 100 but you don't fool the rest of your fellow Southerners.
You're still spewing hatred and fear and causing trouble.

According to WLBT, the "victim" went back to Burger King to call the police after the alleged robbery.
Hmm... I'm no mathematician, but her story isn't adding up so far.

By the way, I know quite a few liberals that wear camo and smugly look down their noses at Republicans.
Fellow Southerner, my ass.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
