Large road sign at SC business: "THIEVES WILL BE SHOT"

WCIV-TV | ABC News 4 - Charleston News, Sports, Weather

Kudos to Art Nichols and Moncks Corner.

MONCKS CORNER, S.C. (WCIV) — Art Nichols sells used construction equipment in Moncks Corner, and for thieves his business is a gold mine. In the past, he says surveillance cameras haven't worked. He hopes a threat, however, will.

About three months ago, he put up a big sign that sits on Highway 52 in Moncks Corner. Needless to say, it has many drivers doing a double take.

"This really gets their attention," the own of Nichols Equipment Inc., said.

Nichols hopes that sign sends a message that he means business. In big, bright letters, the sign bluntly reads: Thieves will be shot.

"We hope it'll be a theft deterrent," he said. "We're just looking to keep our place safe. We don't want any problems out of nobody."

Bank robber with toy gun gets shot with real gun...

He got what he deserved...

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A toy gun was the weapon a 34-year-old man used last week to try to rob a bank in Trimble, Mo., according to investigators.

But the bank worker who shot him in the face didn’t know that when he stepped in to try to protect a female teller crawling on the ground.[...]

According to an affidavit filed in support of Monday’s criminal complaint, Oliva entered First Security Bank, 202 U.S. Hwy. 169, Trimble, at about 1:25 p.m. Friday, March 1.
Oliva allegedly pulled on a black mask, pointed what appeared to be a handgun, but was later found to be a realistic plastic replica, at a bank employee and ordered her to give him the money in her teller drawer.

The employee instead dropped to the floor behind the teller stations and began crawling toward another bank employee, shouting for help. As she was crawling, the affidavit says, she saw Oliva lean over the teller station and point his handgun at her. She grabbed a plastic trash can and tossed it over the teller counter toward Oliva; however, Oliva had moved around the end of the teller stations and was directly behind her.

The second bank employee, who was in an office, heard the shouts for help. He saw Oliva pointing a handgun at the first bank employee, the affidavit says, and retrieved a Smith & Wesson .357 revolver. He fired two rounds at Oliva. The first shot struck Oliva in the jaw, according to the affidavit, and he turned and started toward the bank’s front doors.

No money was taken during the attempted robbery.
