Texas Man Does The Caulk Of Shame
By Wyatt Earp | June 19, 2010
Wow, this story has everything: Violent crime, transgender prostitutes, and a very odd weapon of choice.
Police have issued an arrest warrant for a man accused of injuring a gas station clerk while attempting to rob him — with a caulk gun. The suspect fled the scene in the company of a transgender prostitute he’d picked up earlier in the evening, according to an affidavit issued by the Travis County Sheriff’s Office.
The clerk, Johnnie Limuel, 68, told police that a man dressed in women’s clothing entered the Speedy Stop on East 51st Street around 4 a.m. June 7 and bought a pack of cigarettes and $5 worth of gas. Just after he walked out to a red pickup truck at a gas pump, another man — who police later identified as Jose Alejandro Romero, 17 — walked into the store with a caulk gun partially visible under a white t-shirt. The man pointed the caulk gun at Limuel and demanded money, the affidavit said.
Hey, what better way to seal information leaks than with a caulk gun? Unless he was planning to use the caulk gun to “hide” some of the transgender prostitutes’ less endearing appendages.
