Cops Credit Calif. Hostage for Ending Standoff Peacefully

Post by barstoolguru »

The suspect, identified as Juan Carlos Alvarez, 29, eventually surrendered to police on Sunday in what authorities believe was a botched robbery inside a Big 5 Sporting Goods store. The hostage, Allyson Taylor, 18, was able to escape the harrowing incident without injury thanks to some quick thinking on her feet.

I don't remember being that wise at 18. She did some critical thinking and her plan worked. :clapping:
