7-11 Robber's Big Gulp
04/16/2026
Buffalo Police released video of their chance encounter with alleged armed robbery suspect "in the act of".
The moment suspect Dejuan Williams realizes he's not getting "7-11 robbery rich" but likely trash-canned instead.
Like, what are the chances right?
You're holding up a 7-11, clearly with the expectation of a dole large enough to retire in the Caribbean and a string of shell accounts set up to support you with. Crap luck for you, you do so at exactly the same time that two uniformed police officers with a hankering for dried out pizza under a warming lamp, approach the store.
Gulp.
If only there had been a line maybe.
Oh well. It's gunfight time then.
To be literarily correct it wasn't just the robber's big gulp. It was also the undoubtedly traumatized store clerk's who the bad guy actually shot, and that of both BPD officers whom he also shot at but thankfully missed.
This is the released body cam footage of that encounter that fits squarely into the genre category of "consequence porn" - a genre you can't actually Google without getting back a lot of frankly disturbing results - but suits this sort of context well not withstanding. For all lovers of the kind of YouTube videos where squatters get evicted; shoplifters or grifters get confronted by police or a well-reasoned citizen with a baseball bat -- that sort of thing; let's steal the label.
A lot of chaos ensued but the net result for the officers still demands praise. I imagine most armed robberies involve a cautious, strategic response in wake of a pressed panic button or a 911 call. There's observation, stationing, and some time for at least a little planning that doesn't involve the drugged-out robber panicking or blasting out of spite (which is what might have happened here - FYI the store clerk survived). To walk up on a robbery, accidently fomenting the exact unwanted conditions, yet handling it as effectively as they did, is amazing.
The suspect Dejuan Williams in this case is facing trash-can sentencing if he is proven as guilty as the video and facts as we know them suggests. Meaning, given the fact that he effectively tried to murder police officers, not to mention the store clerk; possibly carjack, and appears to be a felon on parole in the first place; he could be sentenced to life if the priority isn't given to maximizing the state budget over common sense justice and public safety consideration. The New York Inmate lookup system shows a person with the same name and age (and locale) as having served over ten years prior to being released in 2024 on parole.
Looks like they are leaning into attempted murder of a police officer charge.

Videos of Minnesota Deadly Shooting
BuffScan can assume that most people will find these videos in their various feeds. However, here is a compilation for the WWW view.
They are of different angles of the ICE shooting that resulted in the death of unidentified woman. They are definitely going to frustrate a straight-line government narrative that this death had to happen.
These videos shot by charged individuals on the spot are an example of the urgency for public documenting and decentralized media.

As well, many circumstances including mental health and addiction issues can lead to behavioral turbulence and conflicts with society that result in jail. In noting incarceration status please adopt a compassion-first regard. For a variety of reasons the given list may not be all inclusive of those individuals actually processed.
