Pizza Shop Robber Leaves Job Application
Wed Jun 22, 4:11 PM ET
LAS VEGAS - A man accused of holding up a pizza parlor left behind a job application with his real name and address, authorities said. "I would chalk it up to either inexperience or plain stupidity," Clark County prosecutor Frank Coumou told the Las Vegas Review-Journal for a Wednesday report.
Alejandro Martinez, 23, of Las Vegas, was being held Wednesday at the Clark County jail pending a Monday appearance in Clark County District Court. He faces felony burglary and robbery with a weapon charges in the May 25 heist.
Authorities said Martinez ordered a pizza and started filling out the application before displaying a gun and demanding money. The clerk handed over $200.
Outside, a witness wrote down the license plate number of a getaway car, leading police to Martinez' home.
Martinez' lawyer, Deputy Public Defender James Ruggeroli, said authorities have the wrong man. He said said the pizza shop clerk couldn't identify Martinez as the robber, and the job application was not presented as evidence at a preliminary hearing.
So, I've been at work steadily since the last time I wrote... I actually took a tally today to see how many times we were asked anything reguarding the release of the Xbox 360, today was extremely slow but I almost got to 20. I estimated a busy day would generate around 35-50 asks... It's just a really bad joke that microsoft plays on EB employees :/ that's all it is.
My head is about to implode from all the things I need to do to get back on track for school. It's really upsetting to me... Russian homework tonight, write a paper, study for a test tomorrow, do a fold-out for my typography research project... I HATE SCHOOL
I traded in my broken old gig stick today and put the credit toward my 360... that's 50 less that I have to pay. I should have loaded it up with porn though in case anyone tries to use it... I just wanna scar as many kids as possible. Well, it is broken after all... so I guess that's a non-issue.
Top news from the last week: My 250 gig HD died one night at 5am... I spent all morning trying to hit it into complacency, however, I think I only made things worse. I ordered a new 300 gig which should be here either tomorrow or the next day. I will try the age old method of freezing my old drive to try to get another hours use out of it before it becomes just a brick. I have my whole mp3 collection on there (I backed up the majority of it so no biggie), my huge ass anime archive, my backed up installers, old school work, recordings, my movies, all my funny video shorts... it's all very depressing. As the title states, I don't even have any mp3s for my winamp to play when I'm on now.
The soul still burns: Soul Calibur 3 is good. Go buy it even though it's on shitty ps2.
Oh, and Saw 2, I know everyone agrees, is awesome. Go see that also. I'm sure you already did though since only about 3 people read this and I've already heard from all of them concerning this matter.
I still didn't win a free 360 even though I've played about 7 caps now... unbelieveable. Can YOU believe it??? CANNNN YOOOOOUUU DIGGGGGG ITTTT?
I hope Jane can call me soon... blah.
That's all for now folks,
Nick
