Robber in skeleton mask beaten by partygoers

A man in a skeleton mask was severely injured in a fight with the people he tried to rob at an apartment complex in Sunnyslope on Friday night, police said.

Police said the masked man, whom they identified as Justin Pare, 33, entered an apartment near Seventh Avenue and Hatcher Road through a kitchen window. The resident of the apartment thought it was a joke until the masked man took out a silver revolver and demanded money, said Sgt. Andy Hill, spokesman for the Phoenix Police Department.

The resident refused and ran out of his apartment into the courtyard area where other neighbors were having a party, and police said the would-be robber chased the victim and then demanded money from the neighbors at the party. The robber then pistol-whipped one of the neighbors, Hill said.

Police said the man who had been chased from his apartment returned with a baseball bat and struck the suspect, causing him to drop two guns. The neighbors then started beating the robber with the bat and a two-by-four, Hill said.

The robber escaped and fled in a 2007 Dodge Nitro. Police found Pare in the car in a parking lot in the 12000 block of North 21st Avenue. Pare had a severe head injury and broken nose and was hospitalized, according to police.

Three people sustained minor injuries in the scuffle.

I love citizen involvement!

I responded to a tavern robbery once and found the suspect in a corner of the place, laying in a bloody pool with bloody hand marks going up the wall. His own mother couldn't have recognized his face, it was so smashed up.

Apparently, he had come in to rob the place and no one really cared. The bartender gave him the money, but the dumbshit shot a patron for no apparent reason. The people in there grabbed pool cues and literally beat this guy into a bloody pulp. There were broken cues all over the place when I arrived. What was funny was the patrons (with the exception of a couple looking after the person who had been shot) were all back in their seats drinking beer like nothing had happened when I arrived.
