About 10 years ago, I was working at a outlet store in Washington St, and me and a co-worker were getting ready to lock the doors and close the store up and a man with a motorcycle helmet came in and pulled a knife out on me, and demanded everything out of the register. I thought it was a joke at first, so I asked him if he wanted our rolled change as well.. I know not a very smart move on my part.
After he got all the cash out of the registers he made us crouch down and followed us to the backroom while still holding the knife to us.
We got into the back of the store, and he was standing right in front of our safe, lucky for us, he didnt see it. He then proceeded to try and tie us up, with the only thing I can describe it as, is those plastic things that police use to tie someone up when they are not cooperating with them.
He couldnt figure out how to do this, so he made us try and tie up each other..Doesnt appear that he was very smart.
He told us not to leave the backroom for 10 minutes, I was so deathly afraid that he was still in the store waiting to see if we were going to wait the 10 minutes, but lucky he sped off.
We were un-harmed and I am so thankful for that, but it has left a damaging effect on me still today. I am afraid to go out at night by myelf I hardly ever go out, unless I absolutely have too.
I'm afraid of being kidnapped and or something terrible will happen to me. I have such bad anxiety's.
The man was never caught, and as far as I know the police were not able to generate any leads on this guy.
