Ice cream parlor robbed with stapler

Ashland man, 32, arrested in bizarre Midtown Mall incident

By KENNETH HART - The Independent

ASHLAND — The Duct Tape Bandit? He's so yesterday.

Do the math. Do the homework.

srsly. come on.
i dont' think jay leno will ever let our town live it down.
either story.

the writer's strike might save you guys from further infamy.  on the other hand, it can only be so long until the next bandit wanders thru your local hardware store and finds the perfect implement for armed robbery.
