this has nothing to do with junkies by the looks of it btw :P

hmmm this could be nothing... but there might be news of another shooting in Maple Ridge on tv later tonight

was just driving east into Ridge when this classic white mustang was weaving in and out of traffic headed West and tried to do a 4 lane left turn into a dark street but lost control and almost plowed through the 2 cars in front of me and kept going (thought nothing of it)

3 blocks down into downtown Ridge theres a lot of people standing around outside a restaurant looking shocked and 2 cars looked like they kinda made contact (nothing remotely serious) police on scene and more and more arriving as i continue east + the fire department and ambulance


just seemed rather odd, maybe im paranoid after the last shooting but... yeah odd ;)

was working in oakridge mall tonight. just before i got off gunshot(s) were fired and a security guard got sprayed. last thing i saw were cops running in with assault rifles.

trying to find more info on this. staff called me saying shots went off, as I manage a store there .... cops haven't really said much yet

sprayed with bullets or Mace?

sorry, mace to clarify things.

yeah was there a while ago too.
new montecristo got robbed or sth. not sure

Just passed through oakridge picking my wife up. Police covering entrances/exits.

edit: seems like there are heavy cop cars and ambulance on the the bay entrance parking lot on 41st side.

o wow..

oakridge robbery at 8:30

weird metrotown or brentwood mall rarely gets robbed?


seems Oak ridge happens quite often

^^^^ Metro used to always get robbed when that (what was it shamin?) jewellers was there right beside the exit, now they've moved across the street; I'm betting that new jewellery store near Banana Republic / BeBe will get robbed soon since they have tiny windows (so you cant see inside) and a door so no1 can really hear/see a robbery (even though its like in the middle of the mall the other features must be an attraction)



silly security guards /facepalm


why would you try to stop people with guns... ur a damned mall cop with no weapon

ur job is really just to drive out the female/kid shoplifters etc


edit: be realistic twitchy do you think mall security is trained to deal with armed robbers or even equipped to?

ya but its right in the middle of the mall, will be harder to run to the exits



your comment reminds me of MALL COP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


now go watch that shit if you havent

rent it

:rofl::rofl::rofl::thumbsup:

no i know mall security is only trained to call 911 when it comes to armed robbery. But it's too early to jump conclusions when so little details about the robbery has surfaced. May be he was trying to escort panicking shoppers and got attacked as the robbers saw him/her as a threat? Too early to tell hence the fail.

lol i was going to make a mall cop reference too but didnt find it appropriate :P



yeah i understand about the sketchy details it just seems more likely he tried to stop em as thieves usually just concentrate on jetting

SHIT~Montecristo got robbed again...
they are under renovation.
even got robbed in temp. location right next to The Bay
Shitty...

Securities are paper tigers. They're not authorized to engage any hostile activities. I have a frd who manages a security company and he said they'r not allowed any heroism because it poses a huge liability to the company. They'll actually fire u if u try to stop a crime. All they'r suppose to do is to record all the information and pass them on the the cops.

Sadly we're going to see more of these type of robberies to a point where it becomes common. A big part of the reason is the recession as more and more people get desperate they begin to adopt a don't give a shit attitude.
Jobs are becoming harder to attain. This is just the tip of the iceberg as far as I'm concerned.
It's going to get real ugly. World population is growing at an exponential rate.

The problem with Metrotown is its so big.. Nobody is gonna want to run through the mall with a mask on before they even rob the store since the cops will be arriving before they are even finished..
Its not like you can put on the mask when you get there since you will have a whole bunch of cameras that have gotten footage of your face by that point already..

The recession is just an excuse for lazy people to not work... Especially now.. There are jobs out there if you want them.

It seems like Monte Cristo gets robbed every year. At this point, what insurance company is actually willing to cover them? Their rates must be astronomical.

Sadly all the jobs available pay shit and are likely either entry level position without guaranteed full time status or labor jobs which nobody wants to do.
Lazy people will always find ways to loophole the system but this is not that case. The recession has fucked up so many jobs and its going to get even worse. Blame the US for whats about to come. Analysts are all predicting the same dire news
