Wrong Place, Wrong Time Thursday, July 28, 2005
An alleged crook made a big mistake when he tried to rob a coffee shop in the same building as the FBI. Carl Spicocchi, head of the Toledo FBI office, was standing in line at Beaner's Gourmet Coffee (search) around 8 a.m. Monday when he saw a man go behind the counter and take $165 in cash from a drawer.
Spicocchi and other customers at first thought Andrew Johnson worked there, but caught on quickly after manager Jordan Mocek confronted him and Johnson leaped back over the counter.
"It surprised me," Spicocchi told the Toledo Blade.
Mocek grabbed Johnson around the waist, according to witnesses, and both fell into a juice machine. Johnson got up, pushed Mocek back into the machine and tried to run, but Spicocchi, Mocek and two other customers tackled him.
Spicocchi called 911 and more FBI agents rushed down from the eighth floor, followed quickly by police officers. Johnson allegedly gave up the fight when he saw he was outnumbered, but once placed in a squad car he allegedly thrashed around, shouted obscenities and kicked out the car's back window.
A police prisoner van came, but Johnson, apparently recognizing its drivers, refused to get out of the squad car and had to be pepper-sprayed before he would move.
One officer was cut by flying glass from the squad car window, and Mocek banged his head during the fight. Both were treated by ambulance personnel.
Johnson, 34, was charged with robbery and felony vandalism and booked at the Lucas County Jail
