Just had a kid come in the store and ask a suspiciously fake question about random shipping. Midway through answering a cop drives slowly past the front windows. Kids eyes get super darty that direction. After estimating his now obviously false shipping question. He tries every way he can to stay in the store.
Can I use your phone?
It's not for customers
How bout a cell phone then?
Sorry, out of minutes (I've moved further behind the cover of my counter and my gun is now 6 inches away)
A known male customer comes in - suspect takes out his own cell phone and holds it to his ear looking out window
I pass customer (who is volunteer ranger) his quote along with written message "This guy is suspect." Customer makes eye contact with kid, who sees customer's badge pinned to his vest and bolts.
I see cop rolling back through parking lot and come out to ask him if he's looking for anyone in particular then give him full description. Another car pulls up and told the policeman he saw the same description dart across the street trying not to be seen,
