SAN ANTONIO -- A bartender fought off two would-be robbers at a North Side karaoke bar early Friday.

Police tell us the bartender was loading some kegs outside the Kantina Karaoke Bar at Blanco and General Kruger around 3:00 a.m. when two men came up to him and chased him inside the bar. The bartender told police he grabbed a flashlight and fought off the men.

The two suspects also tried to break into the cash register, but wound up leaving with nothing. They are still on the run.

If you have any information about this attack, please contact Crime Stoppers at 224-STOP (7867), submit a tip online, or text a tip by texting "Tip 127 plus your tip" to CRIMES (274637).

although irrelevant to the story, in my opinion, the wefare system sucks. there are jobs out there for those who are willing to do whatever to make an honest living. simple fact is...they don't want to because welfare and unemployment make more money than a job cleaning toilets.

Disadvantaged? You must be thinking of Handicapped? 95% of people on Welfare have the same advantage as me. The ability to work for a living. Nobody gives me squat. However, I am lucky enough to not only pay my way in life, I get to pay their's too. Who's disadvantaged?

1pumpchump: first of all, it's not helpful use any story about a petty crime to rail against the most economically disadvantaged people in our community and assume that they are to blame for all the bad things you, but most of all, there is no gov't gravytrain at the bottom, the gravytrain is at the top, the very top, above Obama (whom i did not and will not vote for), so why don't you get smart and direct your anxious energy to where it may actually do good by spreading some TRUTH instead of misinformed hate-mongering, attack the top not the bottom.

Ah, LimpweenieLewis, AKA Nintindo Boy, I guess in your world, animals, feeding on the Government gravytrain, who rob to supplement their handouts, are irrelavent?

1pumpchump: why don't you find yourself a nice nazi website to post your facist and irrelavent-to-the-story posts.

The Food Stamp program, part of the Department of Agriculture, is pleased to announce it is distributing the most food stamps ever. Meanwhile, the Parks Department, also part of the Department of Agriculture, ask's us to "Please Don't Feed The Animals", because the animals may become dependant & not learn to take care of themselves.
