The victim told the robbers he had no money; they patted him down, found none, got back in their car and fled the scene.
The victim was not injured.
Very Scary and very lucky!
The story has a good ending – but I hope the find the oodles who did this – because next time it won’t be shabbos
Not the smartest ganovim I can recall….sticking up a Satmar from KJ in unlikley to yield high returns on a normal weekday….definitely not a winning strategy on shabbos…
