Not Your Standard Stick-Up

Low-resolution surveillance camera still of a person wearing dark clothing and a hood at a retail counter, partially obscuring their face. The image is grainy and slightly blurred. The The Prime Detective Podcast logo appears in the lower-right corner, fully visible.

In February 2009, a would-be robber walked into a Colorado Springs 7-Eleven wielding a bat’leth, a Klingon sword from Star Trek: The Next Generation. No injuries. No arrests. Just a surreal police report, a question about why this weapon, and what it may have meant to the person holding it.
