New video and audio show how a Glendale pawn shop worker may have saved a woman’s life by calling 911 after the woman silently asked for help in May. The employee told dispatchers a woman inside the Glendale pawn shop mouthed “call 911” after her boyfriend allegedly became aggressive. Police say the suspect, Darren Howard, was trying to get the woman to buy a gun before officers arrived. Bodycam video shows officers entering the shop and ordering Howard to let the woman go as the encounter escalated. Police say Howard took her hostage with a knife, and officers used a Taser before another officer opened fire. Howard survived, and police say everyone involved made it out alive.

Which fucking Glendale? There are three dozen towns, cities and neighborhoods on the United States named Glendale.

For fucks fucking sake. Such a simple thing.

@Bellybutton Yeah, I saw the tag after my rant, but still... I hate when even regular news outlets ignore basic shit like this. It's a pet peeve of mine.
