Not Ready for Prime Time: Two boys, 12 and 14, were quickly arrested in Port St. Lucie, Fla., in March when they tried to rob a woman who was working at a counter behind protective glass in an office, by picking up the convenience phone and threatening her, implying that they had a gun. The woman was in no danger because of the protective glass, but besides that, the place they had chosen for the hit was a regional office of the Port St. Lucie police department.

It'd be fun to imagine how that scene went..... she's having her regular day, answering people's questions about where to pay a parking ticket, how to find the bail office and then those two show up.
1st boy(Into phone) Stick'em up!
Woman : What?
2nd boy: No!! Not "Stick'em up." Say "This is a stick up!"
1st boy: Oh. Yeah. (into phone) This is a stick-up.
Woman just looks at them.
2nd boy -grabbing phone- "This is a stick up."
Woman: You boys go on now. I'm busy.
2nd boy: If you don't put the money in the drawer, I'll shoot.
Woman : You'll what?
2nd boy: Shoot. Yah know, shoot.
Woman looks out the window at the boy's fist shoved in the pouch of his sweatshirt. Turns her chair around : "Ed, you're not going to believe this. Come over here." Turns chair back to the window. "Just a minute, please."
1st boy: I don't think she's going to give us any money.
2nd boy : Shut up.
1st boy: and where's the drawer?
2nd boy : What?
Woman: Sorry about that. Now, what were you saying about shooting?
1st boy: There's no drawer. I don't think this is a bank.
2nd boy: (Into phone) Is this a bank?
Woman: No, sweetie, it's not. Ya'll stay right there now, okay?
Ed has heard enough and heads outside, his hand on his holster.
