Portillos robbery

[cp009]

M'ville Portillo's employees bound during robbery : Merrillville



I no longer patronize Portillos because of their no firearms policy, but this was interesting to see. Do you think the robbers targeted it for that specific reason?

Its possible, or since that area has slowly been going downhill could be another reason.

Yes, they had money there.

The employees must not have pointed out to the robbers that guns were not allowed. Maybe the bad guys just didnt see the "No Guns Allowed" sign.

After their prices went up and the amount of the food got smaller, I quit going there. Were they armed in a gun free zone? Didn't know about the firearms policy, better reason not to go there.

So criminals don't follow the rules. Huh. Too think that they leave their employees vulnerable to these crimes is beyond me. It has to be very traumatizing.

I really liked their food too. Disappointed they decided to lose out on law abiding customers.

One of the suspects fell during a fight with LEO. He was climbing a snow hill behind staples. That just goes to show that police Jack boots have superior grip on snow hills and the BG must have slipped on his own and hit his noggin on the pavement.

You certainly have an inflated sense of these guy's intellects.

Improper training by management.

Last Saturday night they robbed a liquor store near Valparaiso University.

First for me as well....Did not realize they were anti-firearm. Ironic that they were held up and robbed.

Did that have a "No Guns" sign?

....and I've never noticed a sign in Portillo's either. It may be there, but I've never seen it.

I have no problem with Portillos prices since when I go through there, the company I work for picks up my tab.

Saw the pictures of Al Capone on the walls, wonder if they unarmed good guys so only bad guys will have guns? Drive through place only for me, expensive but still pretty decent food.

It's 2013 (for a couple of weeks). How about a more recent sighting of the sign than 2009.

Not sure, it's like the fourth armed robbery in Valpo within a couple of months.
