STRIPPER

Cops in Pueblo say they were spotted trying to buy AK-47 ammo at a Walmart. The gutsy clerk made an excuse why he couldn't sell any and called the cops. A high-speed chase began at 9:36 a.m. and ended 20 miles later. The trio fired at cops. When they crashed their car, Lee Grace came out shooting and was shot in the leg for her troubles.

EARLIER: A STRIPPER and her two heavily armed brothers known as the Deadly Dougherty Gang may have been spotted in Colorado, the FBI have revealed.
Lee Grace Dougherty and her brothers Ryan, 21, and Dylan Dougherty Stanley, 26, went a crime rampage last week, shooting up a police car and then robbing a bank.
It's believed Ryan, the youngest member of the gang, with an astonishing 14 felonies on his record is leading their trail of destruction.
The manhunt for them started the same day that he had allegedly cut off his court-ordered ankle monitoring device having  been forced to register as a sex offender for sending explicit text messages to an 11-year-old girl. 
The three were last seen driving a white 4-door Subaru Impreza with Texas license plates LCS 909, which have been reported stolen out of Texas, Colorado Springs police said.
Officials with the FBI's Denver office told ABC News that this new Colorado sighting is credible, based on multiple interviews with witnesses.
FBI spokesman Dave Joly told the Denver Post: "This appears to be the real deal. We believe they pose a very imminent threat to the community we serve and to law enforcement."
He added that they do not know what direction the suspects might be going.
They are urging the public to keep an eye out in rural areas and in campgrounds where the siblings may be staying or hiding out.
However they are urging people not to approach them as they are packing a powerful arsenal and they are clearly not afraid to use it.

DEADLY DOUGHERTY'S: RYAN 'LIVED IN A FANTASY WORLD'

RYAN (MIDDLE) IS THE LEADER

THE leader of the deadly Dougherty gang, who shot up a cop car in a high speed pursuit and the robbed a bank "lived in a fantasy world" according to his lawyer.
Along with his brother Dylan Dougherty Stanley and sister Lee Grace Dougherty, Ryan Dougherty  has been on a crime spree since last Tuesday, when they were last seen holding up the bank in Valdosta, GA.
Despite being the youngest at 21, cops consider Ryan to be the leader of the terrible trio, who are now believed to be hiding out in Tennessee.
But Robert Eddington the Daytona Beach attorney, defended Ryan the last two years against a lewd and lascivious conduct charge said his client "lived in a fantasy world" and he fears he may strike again, with more deadly consequences. 
He told ABC Action News Ryan entered his office with a blank stare on his face and communicating with the young man was very difficult.
He said: “He didn’t seem particularly there in terms of his mentality. He seemed to be in another place.
"There was a blank look on his face. It was hard for him to focus and look into my eyes because I wanted him to understand fully what was going on.”
He added: "Ryan had the maturity of a 15-year-old boy and often lived in a fantasy world. I’ve seen it before when someone won’t look at you.
"They have this expression, they don’t want to focus and it’s very concerning.”
Eddington was able to make a deal with the prosecutor that, in exchange for pleading guilty to the lewd and lascivious conduct charge, Ryan was able to avoid jail time.
That deal was finalized in a courtroom last Monday, but the very next day Eddington was told that Ryan had cut off his court-required ankle monitor and was now accused of shooting at a police officer.
He said: “I’m only concerned about their safety and the safety of the public as well. I just hope this comes to a conclusion quickly without injury to anybody other than what’s already occurred.”

MOM TO DEADLY DOUGHERTY GANG: 'TURN YOURSELF IN'

"DEADLY DOUGHERTY'S"

THE MOM of the brother and sister team who allegedly robbed a bank and shot up a police car has begged them to "give themselves up."
Barbara Bell has urged her son, 21-year-old Ryan Edward Dougherty his brother Stanley Dylan Dougherty, 26, and daughter 29-year-old Grace Lee E. Dougherty to "turn themselves in."
Armed with at least one AK47, the terrible trio dubbed "the deadly Dougherty's" are accused of walking into a bank in Valdosta, GA, firing shots into the ceiling and demanding cash.   
Then one of them grabbed an undisclosed amount of money and they escape in a white Subaru Imprezza. 
Earlier in the day a police officer in Florida tried to pull the group over for speeding, but rather than pull over they had fired at least 20 shots at the terrified officer.
Thankfully the officer was not injured, although his car was disabled, meaning they were able to get away, but one of the group then texted Bell telling her: "we all have to die."
Sheriff Chris Nocco of Pasco County, Fla told FOX 13 fears the group are on a "violent mission."

ARMED ROBBER WORE SPONGEBOB PAJAMAS

AS attire for bank robberies goes, we've got to give it to this guy - he certainly came up with something novel. 

Decked out in SpongeBob Squarepants pajama pants and a blue McDonalds work shirt he walked into a store armed with an assault rifle and held it up. 

Along with his pal, who had least had the decency to put on some real clothes, the suspect described as about 5-foot-6, weighing 200 to 220 pounds, with short hair and a light complexion, got away with an
undisclosed amount of money. 

The other suspect is described as about 5-foot-4, weighing 140 to 150 pounds, with dreadlocks and dark complexion. He wore a white hooded shirt and black Jordan shorts and shoes.

 According to the news release, the women feared they would be sexually assaulted because the suspects made sexual comments and one inappropriately touched one of the women.

Crime Stoppers will pay up to $5,000 for information leading to the suspects' identification, charging or arrest. Call 713-222-8477 (TIPS), visit www.crime-stoppers.org or text TIP610 plus your tip to CRIMES (274637). Tipsters remain anonymous.

IS NAVACHIA EDWARDS BEN AFFLECK STYLE ROBBER?

EDWARDS?

SHE'S  a nun on the run no longer, as cops say Navachia Edwards is one of the brazen robbers who held up a Chicago bank in a heist that looked like a carbon copy of Ben Affleck film "The Town."

Cops claim the 23-year-old she and an unknown accomplice escaped with $120,000 in cash after donning nun's outfits and masks exactly like the one featured in the movie which told the story of a Boston bank crew. 

Cops told the Chicago Tribune Edwards bought two "Adult Funny Nun Costumes" and two "Nun on the Run" masks with a prepaid debit card.

She was caught on a surveillance camera that allegedly captured the purchase.
White zip ties that resemble ones used in the TCF robbery, were also bought with the same debit card.

While investigators say the getaway car used in the robbery looked like one that Edwards had rented.

FBI spokesperson Ross Rice: "It's great physical and incidental evidence, but it took a great deal of effort to put all those pieces together." 

The paper said Edwards' boyfriend was seen checking out the bank a few hours before the robbery, according to the authorities, and had even been caught raising his leg up to the height of the counter, as if to see if it was possible to climb over.
Under FBI questioning, the boyfriend allegedly burst into tears and said "My life is ruined."
Edwards, a former teller, also faces bank embezzlement charges. She is accused of taking $20,000 from a Chase Bank branch where she worked in April. 

The Tribune said she took the money by replacing some $100 bills in bundles with singles, although on that occasion she promised to repay the money.

REAL LIFE

THE MOVIE

DRESSED as nuns, the masked raiders walked into the Chicago bank  in a heist that looked like a carbon copy of Ben Affleck film "The Town."
FBI officers were stunned by the CCTV footage from the Palos Heights, CA banks which showed a man and a woman wearing eerie plastic faced disguises with slits for eyes, similar to those  worn by robbers in the 2010 film.
Cops said the suspects pulled out handguns and forced bank workers to hand over cash before they drove off just before closing time at 1:58pm on Sunday afternoon.
Jumping over the counter they ordered a bank teller and the branch manager to the vault where a Nike duffel bag was filled with money.
Then they made quick getaway in a silver four-door Chevrolet, which was seen driving north, according to police.

No customers were in the bank at the time of the robbery and cops are not disclosing how much money was taken.Officers described the female suspect as a black woman, about 5’5 tall, wearing black boots, white gloves and armed with a semi-automatic pistol.
The male suspect is described as a black man, about 5’7 inches tall, wearing black-and-white gym shoes, black-coloured gloves and armed with a revolver.
