Armed robbers steal woman's pants

The Dayton Daily News is reporting that a Fairborn woman told police two gunmen stole her pants from her as she loaded laundry into her car early Wednesday at Capital Cleaners on Kaufman Avenue.

According to the story, the 21-year-old woman told police the men approached at 3:39 a.m. as she loaded white trash bags full of freshly washed and dried clothes into her car in the parking lot of the business.

From the story:

    She said one of them put a gun to her neck before grabbing four pairs of Fubu jeans from one of her bags and her pink wallet.

    Another woman, 33, told police that one of the men suspected in the Laundromat holdup robbed her of jewelry and cash Tuesday night, when he went to her home after calling to say he wanted to pick up a bike left there, police reports said.

    The woman told police the man held a black gun to her head after she opened her door. She told police she surrendered $147 and a gold pinky ring.

Despite the fact that laundry businesses are often located in high crime areas and are open 24 hours a day, some Ohio laundromats have posted signs banning customers' right to bear arms for self-defense:

  • Blue Ribbon Cleaners, Perrysburg
  • Cridersville Laundry, Cridersville
  • Michelle Cleaners, Mayfield Village
  • Norgetown Cleaners, Wadsworth
  • Spin Cycle Laundromat, Cleveland
  • Village Cleaners, Brecksville

    Contact information for these and other dangerous locations is available in OFCC's Do Not Patronize While Armed database.
