a few years back i was at a gas station down in Detroit. i live just outside of the city but do most of my work as a fugitive recovery agent in the inner city it was like any other day. i went in and paid for my gas then went out and filled my tank. i went back in after filling up to get something to drink. i am standing by the drink fountain pouring a 44 oz size cup of mountain dew (i bleed green). i had my glock with me as i always do it was on my right hip and pointing towards the rear of the store. people walking in wouldn't have been able to see it i notice someone walk in and hear the chimes. next thing i know there is a guy at the counter with what appeared to be dynamite on his chest with a clock and wires. it appeared at first glance to be a bomb. i drew my glock out and pointed at the individual who was trying to rob the gas station by stating he had a bomb and would blow us all up. i yelled do not make a move you have a loaded gun pointed at your head. he spun around. looked at me and my gun, then said "ive got a bomb and i will blow it up" when he spun around i noticed the clerk had reached under the counter. i assumed at the time it was to trip the silent hold up alarm. back to the nutbag with the bomb. he started going on and on how he was going to blow us all up to the point i said just do it already if you are going to (maybe not the best choice when dealing with someone threatening to use a bomb) the police arrives while i still had him at gun point and secured the suspect. it turned out he had road flares strapped to his chest with a alarm clock and some speaker wires to make it appear as a real bomb. the situation could have been worse but at the end of the day the good guys won and another criminal gets to spend some time in jail. i felt like a hero that day and often visit that gas station where the owner has let me get free fountain drinks for the past few years.
