J. Lo, do your krav maga thing! (Who even knew Enough was set in San Francisco?) In San Jose, a man named Adam Wells puts a knife up to the neck of a man parked in a lot and tries to carjack him. But doh! The carjackee is a karate instructor! The karate instructor knocks the knife out of Wells's hand, throws him to the ground, and discovers that Wells is also carrying a gun. The karate instructor empties the gun of bullets, gives Wells a long lecture about "making bad decisions in life," and then gives him back the gun and the knife. Wells then leaves the parking lot -- and goes straight for a Wells Fargo across the street, which he proceeds to hold up (with the knife). The cops seem a little exasperated that the karate instructor didn't call 911 earlier, so maybe they could have stopped the bank robbery.

Were you guys following the story about the kidnapped one-year-old, whose aunt had asked a girl she had just befriended to babysit her nephew, and the girl took off with the baby? And then the girl was caught when she went to another friend's place with the baby, where the friend and her roommates blocked her from leaving the apartment until the cops came? Well, the cops found out that one of the roommates, April Hackett, had a warrant out for car theft, and now she's in jail too. Hackett's friends say this is why people don't cooperate with the cops. The cops note that people can always make anonymous tips.
