A retired police chief said he was robbed by "probably the dumbest criminal in Pennsylvania," at a police officers' convention on Friday morning. John Comparetto said as he came out of a stall in the men's room, a man pointed a gun in his face and demanded money. There were 300 narcotics officers from Pennsylvania and Ohio at the gathering.
Comparetto gave up his money and cell phone. But when the man fled, Comparetto and some colleagues chased him. They arrested a 19-year-old man as he was trying to leave in a taxi.
The suspect is also awaiting trial on four previous robbery charges.
The suspect was arraigned and taken to Dauphin County Prison. When a reporter asked the suspect for comment as he was led out of court, he said, "I'm smooth."
We one time had a lady that came over to the jump van ( jump van:(n) large box van carrying several police officers in the back, used to approach drug dealers after an undercover drug buy has been made and to affect apprehension.The officers pull up in front of the dealers and "jump" out of the back and grab the bad guys. Officers are clearly identified by equipment and usually a blue jacket with large letters spelling police on it) She climbed into the passenger seat and attempted to sell the driver crack cocaine. We had radios and our gear on....there is a reason it (drugs) are commonly referred to as DOPE.
