The helmet is a Shoei Hornet DS Sonora. Around $800 and not exactly common, especially with that pattern.

I wonder what he threatened? Liverpool kiss? Exposing himself? Halitosis? Harsh language?

the pharmacy staff aren’t paid to be heroes.

Or maybe “I’ll shoot you” or “I’ll stab you” etc.

He looks like The Stig.

His choice of that really inconspicuous bash hat shows he obviously put a lot of thought into this.

I wonder what he threatened? Liverpool kiss? Exposing himself? Halitosis? Harsh language?

Did he even have a weapon?

“No weapon was sighted.”

Ban motorcycle helmets I say!! (just like those troublesome hoodies)
