spidrvacc Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) Dont see this posted so sorry if it is . Was watching the news at 630 and saw that someone tried to rob Midtown comics http://nypost.com/2017/10/10/man-robs-comic-book-store-tries-to-escape-like-a-superhero/ http://pix11.com/2017/10/10/man-jumps-through-second-story-window-at-midtown-comics/ https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20171010/midtown-south/midtown-comics-window-jump He’s no Superman. A shoplifting suspect at a Midtown comic-book store tried to make like a superhero for his getaway — by diving through a second-floor window. He plummeted to the pavement and was soon apprehended. The wild scene happened when the man, who was raving and appeared to be high on drugs, walked into Midtown Comics on West 40th Street and Seventh Avenue and started going berserk on the second-floor of the shop, according to witnesses and police officials. “He was out of his mind and looked like he was strung out on something,” said store manager Jerry Gladston. “He was just running around and then dove out the window. “We see this stuff from the window all the time but never inside the store.” Police said the man reportedly shoplifted some merchandise during the escapade. When employees tried to stop him, he began ranting incoherently and ran around the store before busting through the glass and falling from the window.

Ken Aldred Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) Read comics in moderation. Too many in one go can have a disorientating effect. Edited October 11, 2017 by Ken Aldred Tony S 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BitterOldMan Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I have visited the store many times. You have to walk up a narrow staircase to even get into the shop, which is located on the second and third floors. I was last there on Saturday.
