MAN KIDNAPS FAMILY, FORCES THEM TO SHOP AT TARGET

In Durham, North Carolina, a man was arrested on Tuesday for allegedly kidnapping a family and forcing them to take him shopping at Target. Rollin Anthony Owens Jr., 29, went to a home about 7 a.m. and demanded the family hand over money. The family – a man, woman and two children – gave him cash, but he then held them at gunpoint and forced them to drive him around. They stopped at an ATM to withdraw money, then headed to the convenience store before stopping at Target. Owens had some of the family shop for him inside the store, purchasing several bags of clothes and gift cards, while he sat in the car holding the rest of them hostage. One of the family members eventually alerted a Target employee, who called 911. Officers arrested Owens and charged him with second-degree kidnapping and robbery.
* If you ever thought, “Shop at Target? Not even at gunpoint.” Let this be a lesson for you.
* It’s “Target: Expect More”, not “Target: Expect to be the Target”.
* Hard to believe a foolproof plan like this could have failed.
* Idiot. Everything they got at Target they could have gotten for 30% less at Walmart.
* They caught him just in time. After Target, he was going to force them to stop at Arby’s.
* Meanwhile, Sears just sits there and wishes ANYONE would stop by.
