Don't get me wrong, I'm not trivializing crime. This is a scary situation. I am, however, trivializing criminals.

On Tuesday 3/29 at 2005 hours, in the 2500 block of Kimberly Street, a pizza deliveryman returned to his vehicle after making a delivery. The suspects were waiting for him when he came back. One suspect was sitting in the victim’s vehicle and displayed a handgun; he demanded the victim’s cash. The suspects attempted to drive away in the victim’s vehicle, but didn’t know how to drive a clutch. The suspects fled on-foot toward the mall.

Thwarted by a clutch!
