There is no way to I.D. this guy. St. George P.D. should go out to various stores and install some kind of prevention training. St. George is turning out the bank robbing and burglary capital of the world !!!
Ahem . . . read the article. This happened in Mesquite.

Emily. LOL no kidding. huh… too funny
Classic ASSumption!
Does anyone see a pattern going on lately? Our community is being over run Big Time. Shouldn’t the government be responsible for dishing out money for those in need of drugs? They do for sex changes, abortions, heathcare, cell phones, protest march participation, etc. Why not for needed drugs? It’s just not fair.
At lease the government could supply store clerks with prevention training.
(i.e. a 12 gage and maybe a cheap vest camera to document the kill).
Dang tweekers
He’s turned himself in, I know him personally and never expected it. So he’s off the streets tg.
