RENT-A-COP NABS ROBBER

Yes, the apocalypse is nigh. Springfield Police say a hapless crook failed in his Friday morning attempt to rob the Kum & Go at 2404 E. Sunshine St. From SPD spokesman Matt Brown:
The suspect displayed a handgun to the clerk and demanded money during the robbery. The crime was interrupted by a private security officer who entered the business and took custody of the suspect. No shots were fired during this incident.

The suspect is identified as Cregg A. Goodwin (DOB 8-31-86) of Springfield. Goodwin was arrested and booked into the Greene County Jail for first degree robbery.
The private security guard is Friday's local hero, blessed with a lifetime supply of free Kum & Go coffee. Does life get any better?
