One Weird-Ass Story
SHREVEPORT, La. -- A masked gunman walked into a gas station and demanded money, apparently not noticing that the line at the counter included a uniformed police officer.
L.J. Scott, a member of the Police Department's armed robbery task force, told the would-be robber to put his own hands up.
Scott took the handgun and arrested Derek Pierson Jr., 21, of Stockton, Calif., police department spokeswoman Kacee Hargrave said.
Hargrave said Pierson was booked into the city jail on a charge of armed robbery with a firearm.
