Ok so I'm aware of the low quality of this picture, but I'm kinda happy with it regardless... I'll set the scene..

So I was out with a couple friends tonight, on my way home I decided to get some gas.. So I drop into the local gas station, fill up.. ignore the yelling these two people were doing... something about how this guy wasn't allowed to go with them anymore.. or something. I fill up, go inside to pay. there's two more people off to the side, the woman was saying how this guy is f-ing everything up, and such.. I pay for my gas, walk out.. now the guy is yelling, cursing away, saying something about how first someone else leaves him, now this woman is leaving him too.. yada yada.. I'm thinking "ok that's kinda weird... I think I might call the cops and just let them know about it.." so I get into my car, drive around the back of the station, you know, to call the cops.. when I see two cop cars parked in the lot talking to someone.. I stuck around a little while, was gunna ask if they knew about the yelling etc.. then I decided they probably already knew.. so I continued on.. instead of going home, I parked across the road in the local video store lot.. and.. well.. took out my camera. I know, it sounds horrible, but I wasn't in any rush to go home. So I'm taking a few pictures of the people waving their arms around and such.. then a cop car pulls up along side them.. then next thing I know, someone took a run for it... So you know, I was torn at this point. Do I a) continue taking pictures of (for all I know) some guy that just robbed the place, for evidence. or b) get out and tackle this guy down.. he was heading right past me. I decided to just take pictures. This was the only one that came out with any sort of detail. That pic above, on the map, the red X is where he was when I got that picture. the blue path is the one I took

Booya it was fun

Oh and sorry for the long read. I just didn't want to keep telling people the story, so I put it all on one page

Holy shit, man! Thats crazy business...yeah i probably wouldnt have had the balls to take on a criminal either. I reckon that this occoured at the 7-11 gas station in Armstrong by the looks of the satallite photo and the picture? Figures...them Armstrong folk are nuts.
