Ron gets a no-prize that will wave at a camera for bringing us the latest in "stoopid criminal" stories:
Viewers of a Fort Smith auction show helped stop an attempted robbery unfolding on live television. Two men attempted to rob 'Shopping Mania' as it was being broadcast, and people watching the show took action and called 9-1-1. Law enforcement says this is one of the more unusual cases they've seen, because you could see what was taking place, live.
And yes, that's Fort Smith AR. Color me stunned that there's anything with the word "auction" attached to it that my mom doesn't know about. She's really starting to slow down now!
I am ignoring you. I have more important things to worry about than auctions in Ft. Smith. lol
