PRESS RELEASE
On April 1, 2013, at approximately 1:00pm an armed robbery occurred at MS& K Confectionary Store located at 745 Prospect Street, Maplewood, NJ. A male suspect, only described as wearing dark clothing, entered the variety store, produced a handgun and demanded that the storekeeper open the cash register. Shortly thereafter, a struggle ensued during which time the male suspect shot the storekeeper once in the torso. The male suspect then fled the store in an unknown direction. The storekeeper was transported to University Hospital in Newark where he is listed in stable condition with non-life threatening injuries. The Maplewood Police Department Detective Bureau in conjunction with the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office is investigating the robbery. The Maplewood Police Department is requesting that anyone with information about the robbery to please contact the department at 973-762-1234.
Have the Maplewood police caught anyone for any crimes committed? It seems the bank robber is still at large, and all of the muggings go unpunished. I get car thefts are more difficult to catch, but it seems to me, there are more harassed teenagers than there are results. If someone doesn't understand what I'm writing, I am saying the Maplewood PD are all aesthetics and little results. They're budget is being spent wisely.
