Around their midnight closing time, a man armed with a sawed-off shotgun and a knife attempted to rob the NE Minneapolis Burger King on Central and 18th. The robber forced the employees into the cooler and proceeded to clear out the cash register. However, the employees remembered their training and tripped a silent alarm located in the cooler.
Since the second precinct headquarters is only two blocks away response was swift. By the time the crook stepped out the back door, police were waiting for him.
The suspect is listed only as a 28 year old man from Burnsville.
One of the policemen interviewed said the employees did exactly what they should do in this situation. It also seems Burger King itself was resourceful in locating a silent alarm inside the cooler. I would guess they have learned from some past experiences on that one.

BK definitely deserves an at-a-boy for this one. That's some smart thinking...
