Quick-thinking store clerk managed to slow suspect down
Derek Andre Price, 18, was held in lieu of $25,000 bail following his arraignment in Brighton District Court, the Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports.
The DA's office says a clerk at the Quality Market made a good decision when Price showed a gun around 9:20 p. and demanded "all the money:"
The DA's office says that after the robbery, the clerk got in his car and followed Price - and called 911. Price was arrested on Feneuil Street with a loaded .32-caliber revolver, the DA's office says, adding the money was found in a bag near the Meineke Muffler Shop on Market Street.
No, no
Quite the contrary, dear Conley. He gave him all of the quarters...and the nickels and dimes too.
