FLORIDA COMPUTERS STOLEN FROM BUSINESS Security officer attacked by armed robbers By; Rick McCann www.privateofficer.com « PRIVATE OFFICER BREAKING NEWS
ORLANDO, Fla. Dec. 4, 2007– An Orlando restaurant was robbed for the second time in less than a week early Monday morning. Three robbers held up the Oh Que Bueno restaurant on Semoran Boulevard and pointed a gun right in a security guard’s face.
The guy came from behind, grabbed me from the neck, pointed a gun,” said security guard Narey Perez.
Perez thought his life was going to end. The 19-year-old security guard was working at the Columbian restaurant on South Semoran Boulevard when three men shattered a glass door and broke in.
Perez confronted them as he was hired to do, but he quickly found himself on the ground with a .45 pointed at his face.
“He said in Spanish, ‘If you move, I’ll blow your head,’” Perez said.
It was the second time in five days the restaurant was targeted. Last Tuesday, someone broke in and stole computers, surveillance cameras and other electronics.
The owner hired Perez to patrol the property and prevent another robbery, but he was overpowered by two men with bandanas over their face and a guy with a mask like the one seen in the movie Friday the 13th.
“At that time, I thought I was gonna die, so I didn’t move. I stayed on the ground. I didn’t move for nothing,” Perez said.
Whoever committed the crime placed two flat screen TVs in a van and drove away. They also took Perez’s handcuffs, his jewelry and the few dollars he had in his pocket.
“What’s so alarming about this is that the security guard actually believed he was going to be killed. He thought the suspects were acting in a manner as though he was going to get killed,” said Lt. Laura Houston of the Orlando Police Department.
Police were still searching for the suspects late Monday morning.
