Caltrans... Ace crime stopper.

Thugs probably had to ditch the get-away car when they got stuck in detour traffic.

With a wider highway, these crooks would have gotten away!

The thieves "stole an undisclosed amount of merchandise," police said. "One suspect pushed an employee to the ground." I guess that's what's meant by "strong-arm robbery." Not armed robbery, but shoplifting and pushing someone. Major crime in Pacifica,

1124 IDK. Is that good or bad? Don't you worry, the armed and dangerous ones know all about towns with good getaway routes and quiet little banks, armored cars, fat grocery stores. That highway widening is a big project, but aww shoot, you guys, we aim to please in Pacifica.

Have you compared Ace Hardware's prices to Lowe's or Home Depot.

They have been robbing their customers for years!

You think little local franchise Ace could or should beat the big chain prices? You pay a little more for home town convenience. Careful balancing act. You gouge, you go. Like the guys on the highway.
