How exactly did they conceal a sledgehammer? Or maybe the media doesn't really know what a sledgehammer is.

My girlfriend was actually there when it happened, she said she heard the glass shatter as she was just a couple stores down from where it happened, but then she heard a loud pop that sounded like a gunshot and thats what sent everyone in a panic running for their lives. She said it was complete madness in there as i could imagine in a situation like that and not knowing whats actually going on. The media and the cops are saying the loud pop was the glass shattering, but she knows the difference between that and a gunshot, so i'm not sure why they are denying that, maybe because the suspects got away?

If there was a gunshot then a shell casing would have been found, OR security tapes in the store would have shown it. So why lie?

If it was a revolver there would not have been a shell casing left behind.

Touche.

However, cameras should still catch the shooting in action. A store like that MUST have some security cameras!

I know wfla had there whole news hour devoted to this. My god it was a robbery. I have noticed they run the same stories day after day. And I noticed they don't have that many reporters. Same ones doing field and ancor. It's a small market here I guess. They ask the most stupid questions also.

I've noticed that there just isn't anything here that suits you. You must be very miserable living in such a backasswards city.
