Former McLean Store Clerk Was Victimized Twice

Washington Post story

The Washington Post has a riveting story today about the clerk who was the victim of an armed robbery at a McLean video store.

We told you back in November of an armed robbery that was thwarted by the Fairfax County police at what was then the Blockbuster Video store on Chain Bridge Road near the Safeway.

Turns out the worker who was tied up had been the victim of a similar store robbery 15 years ago in New York. The Post tells her story of "two jobs, two robberies, one recurring nightmware."
