The dude robs a gun store, steals seven handguns, and is considered "Armed and dangerous".

Well, duh. Were we to think him a pacifist pussycat?

The subject pictured looks strikingly similar to a guy named Quintin McCleery who lives in Abilene. He lived in San Angelo until about 9 years ago but he has family here in San Angelo and has quite a criminal record for burglary, trespassing, criminal mischief among other crimes he was never charged for such as stalking and sexual assault. He still frequents San Angelo as often as possible and is also very familiar with firearms. Coincidence?!
