That Didn't End Well! Two Armed Men Try to Rob a Bar Full of Cops!

This is what bad decisions look like! Joseph McInnis and Tyree McCoy allegedly tried to rob a bar full of police officers! The two men, who were armed at the time, entered the bar, which was across the street from the police precinct, not knowing that the police officers were there celebrating the retirement of a fellow officer!

The Baltimore Sun Reports:

As officers were celebrating a longtime sergeant’s retirement in the main room of Monaghan’s Pub on Gwynn Oak Avenue, two masked men approached the carryout counter nearby around 5:30 p.m., police said. Monaghan’s owner Jack Milani said the men demanded cash from the register and then took off.

Some of the off-duty officers attending the retirement party gave chase and arrested the two men nearby, the department said.

Police charged Joseph McInnis III, 21, (pictured, l) of the first block of Inwood Ave., and Tyree McCoy, 22, (pictured, r) of the 3500 block of Cedar Drive, with armed robbery, theft and related offenses, department spokesman Cpl. Shawn Vinson said. Neither had an attorney listed in online court records.

Milani said he was surprised that someone would commit a robbery at his business, which is just across from a precinct station. During shift changes, he said, there are a lot of squad cars coming and going into the station, and he said many of the officers are regular customers.

“It’s kind of odd you would even attempt it,” Milani said. “[Officers] are always in here. There was a decent amount of them.”

Let's hope they learned a lesson.
