17-year old robber Marquis Baker |
From an article:
A woman who didn't want to be identified recalled what happened when the teens stormed in.Luckily, no one was injured.
"He told me to get down. And I got down, and he said, if you move, I'm going to blow your brains out."
The robbers were wearing masks, and were armed with pistols and an AK47.
"You think about the AK, and then it had a 30 round clip in it and the damage or deaths that could have resulted in that weapon alone," said Prichard Police Chief Jimmie Gardner. "It looks to be a well planned situation to a degree, and I think much of this is from watching TV. Note that each individual wore masks. They were heavily armed. They went in with a plan to put everyone down, every individual who was in the club was actually put on the floor. They went through their pockets, took their cell phone, any money or any other thing of value that they had on them."
Before all of that, the owner, Bill Goodwin, said he was watching the surveillance cameras from his home when he spotted the teens suiting up.
"I just happened to be watching the monitor and saw three individuals and they were putting masks on as they were entering the door, and I saw one of them had a pistol, seemed like a 9MM," said Goodwin.
