From a recent email:
My assistant was robbed at gunpoint at a gas station near the intersection of Poplar and Kirby yesterday morning in broad daylight. She was at one of the gas pumps, saw the guy coming, and immediately locked her doors. Before she had time to do anything else, he busted through her window with the butt of his gun, held her back against the driver's seat with the gun to her head, and took everything from her wallet to her GPS to her kids' school uniforms to the necklace she was wearing. He then went and ran up over $600 on her credit cards before she could get them canceled.
Obviously, she was not in a "bad" part of town, but the police told her that it's happening often at that intersection, mainly because of easy access to I-240 and 385. As we all know, there are many other places in the "good" parts of Memphis where the same thing (or worse) is happening. Please be careful out there.
