FOG BLOG SAINT JOHN LOG: ATTEMPTED ARMED ROBBERY FOILED BY OWNER OF FUNDY HEIGHTS CONVENIENCE!

GET THIS, AN 11 YEAR OLD BOY WALKED INTO THE FUNDY HEIGHTS CONVENIENCE STORE ON FUNDY DRIVE AND DUNN AVENUE IN THE RELATIVELY QUIET NEIGHBOURHOOD OF FUNDY HEIGHTS WITH A KNIFE AND DEMANDED CASH. THE OWNER WHO I KNOW AND IS A VERY NICE MAN SOMEHOW TALKED THE BOY DOWN AND DE-ESCALATED THE SITUATION. IT IS UNCLEAR IF THE POLICE WHERE INVOLVED AND WHAT NEXT WOULD BE INSTORE FOR THE BOY OR EVEN HIS FAMILY! THIS HAPPENED ABOUT MID WEEK. STORY BY MIKE BECKWITH
