Frequently Asked Questions

What are key indicators of a potential armed robbery threat?

Look for suspicious vehicle behavior like circling the block or loitering, and individuals exhibiting unusual patterns. These signs should trigger heightened awareness and a potential defensive response to create distance and options.

Does complying with an armed robber guarantee safety?

No, compliance does not guarantee safety. Statistics show fully compliant victims are injured about 25% of the time. Victims using a firearm for self-defense experience significantly lower injury rates, around 6%.

What tactical advice is given for personal security during a potential attack?

The advice emphasizes that 'attention buys time' and 'distance buys options.' Creating a buffer zone, such as walking on the opposite side of the street from a suspicious vehicle, can increase safety.

What should a victim do immediately after a robbery?

After a robbery, victims should 'beat feet' and exit the danger zone as quickly as possible. Attackers may return to force victims to unlock stolen electronic devices, making rapid egress crucial.
