Leander, near Austin, 3 guns drawn

High school student, Henderson, (criminal robber) (WAS) set to play college football at A&M
Leander police said Gregory Doyle Turner, 18, and John Henderson, 17, demanded money from the man and his wife.

When the victim refused, Turner allegedly pulled a gun on him. The victim told police he then pulled out his own gun, and Henderson also allegedly pulled out a gun and hit the victim on the head with it.

Wonder if any of those A&M faculty who voted to keep the campus "gun free" should know.

You'd be surprised to know how many college and professional athletes are thugs and hoodlums that just "caught a break" through sports.

Some straighten out and make positive gains, others not.

Your link changed...
Here's the new url..

http://www.kxan.com/dpp/news/crime/pist ... of-Leander" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The details are also changed... The victim grabbed the first assailants gun, then the secnd assailant pulled another gun and pistol whipped the victim..

What's the penalty for first time attempted armed robbery in TX?
Life I hope.

Lucky victim wasn't killed. He should buy a lottery ticket.

Roughly twenty years ago my brother was a HS basketball coach. 4 of his first string players got nabbed for burglary. They got no sympathy from him and were immediately tossed off the team. He still took the remainder of his team to the state playoffs. :clapping:

I don't do those things to other people and I require the same of them.

Don’t pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he’ll just kill you.

“We're never surprised to hear there's something going on, or damaged or gone a miss at the park,” Carolyn Rushton, who lives near the small community park, said.

Neighbors told us the park draws a different crowd after dark.
So, it's the park's fault. :headscratch Or, perhaps the city's fault for inadequate lighting? :totap:
(I think they need security cameras in the park, cameras stop crimes, I saw a College Campus state they installed cameras to protect us ... I see criminals on cameras every night on the news not committing crimes because of the "protected" businesses)

Leander star charged with aggravated robbery
Leander football star Jonathon Henderson was arrested last week in connection with an armed robbery that happened in Leander.

...
verbal commitment to Texas A&M this past summer but is no longer listed as a Texas A&M (football) recruit ...

A prospect in baseball as well, Henderson was scheduled to test in front of major-league scouts this past Saturday.
