No real details, but one of those stories that makes you go "hmmm." They showed about ten seconds of video in front of the store. When I got to work and <a href="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/localnews/stories/DN-stabbing_13met.ART.State.Edition2.4abd499.html" target="_blank">read the newspaper</a>, the stabbing happened around 4AM (which was not mentioned in the TV report) after the victim was being chased around town by his killer. He just happened to stop his car at that location when he was attacked. The newspaper article didn't mention the store, just the address. You know the TV piece got plenty of more viewership than the paper. I'm not a fan of LSC, but "sensationalized" news like this gives our hobby a bad name. Anything to tart up the news. My condolences go out to Brustein family for the loss of their son. Max sounds like he was a really nice kid.</blockquote>
