    Bus Rider: yea whatever

They need to fire the whole Montgomery county police leadership and start over. It is a shame that the local Fox new affiliate new station has to follow this criminal for 30 minutes before you see any police. The other 2 crooks got away, not surprisingly. Montgomery county is become like NYC where criminals have more rights than victims. What a disgrace.
