buffet palace

DH and a friend of his ate dinner at Buffet Palace over on Westgate yesterday evening. As they were going into the restaurant they saw some guy in the process of stealing a stereo out of a pickup truck. The guy had smashed out the rear window and was inside of the truck ripping out the stereo with his legs hanging out of the back window. After he was done stealing the stereo he took off running on foot. This was at 7 pm, pretty much broad daylight and during dinner prime-time. SO, when dining at Buffet Palace sit where you can see your car.

DH's friend is with the Travis County Sheriff's Department so all appropriate followup was done. Unfortunately, since you (a civilian) never know who has a gun, it's unsafe to try to stop anything like this while it's happening. Just try to remember all the important details (what they were wearing, the licence plate on the car they drove off in, which direction they went in, how tall they were, etc) so that a complete report can be filed.
