My article was about a twelve year old boy who robbed a convenient store with a toy gun. He went into the store and pointed a long wooden barreled gun at the clerk and demanded money. After the clerk handed over an amount of money, the boy said thank you and left. After he left, police saw him walking down the street and pulled him over. The boy tried to run before he was caught.

I think that this article is kind of an oddity because the fact that a twelve year old boy robbed a store with a fake gun is kind of weird. I think that this will affect a lot of convenient store owners because they could lose a lot of money by being robbed. I think it will also affect parents because they might buy less fake guns knowing that their kid could get in a lot of trouble with them. I think this is an important article because it gets awareness out, and it kind of makes people laugh when they find out that a store was robbed by a twelve year old boy with a fake gun.

I think that people need to be aware more often. I think that a lot of kids have fake funs that can look really realistic and if you're being robbed you wont take the time to notice if it's fake or real. I think that parents should be more aware of what their children are doing so that things like this can happen less often.
