ADA, Okla. ― An Ada man on the run since Tuesday morning is now behind bars in Pontotoc County. Ryan Anderson, 18, was arrested Wednesday at a trailer park west of Ada.

Anderson was the last of three suspects to be taken into custody for the attempted armed robbery of the Sooner Stop Convenience Store on North Broadway in Ada.

Two other people, a juvenile and Nichole Brown, were arrested on Tuesday, but Anderson fled. Pontotoc County Sheriff's deputies, Ada police, and Chickasaw Lighthorse officers all helped track him down.

TO:EH? First off, realist and whats going,never wrote on their blogs where they are from or said anything about Texas. Second off TO: Johnny, you know that little bet you wanted to make realist well i wouldnt do it if i were you. While Oklahoma does not have the worst crime track record, it does have a pretty bad one. Definetly not a lower crime rate than 75% of all other states

Typical behavior from BOTH SIDES OF THE RIVER!!!!!!! It doesn't matter where criminals are people. Criminals are bad for ALL STATES. Nobody seems to be saying anything else about this guy except for where he is from. Hello, that's not the BIG ISSUE here people.

Zyklon...I'm not FROM Oklahoma...I'm from Texas...I left it because theres too many idiots like THIS one there...and also people like YOU who like to spout off their mouths when they don't have a CLUE what they're talking about...oh, and by the way, do it under a false name or anonymously!!! ZYKLON...what kind of fantasy are YOU living?

Johnny your state has a low robbery rate because THERE IS NOTHING TO ROB IN YOUR POOR #@%#$@% STATE!

Posted by: Eh? Location: There on Jan 8, 2009 at 02:05 PM
Hey Realist and "what going". How about getting some facts. Now I'm guessing, by your poor attempt at writing, that you're probably from Texas. Texas Crime rate as it relates to violent crime, 516.3 per 100,000. OK crime rate for the same categories of offenses, 497.4. Source, Federal Bureau of Investigation. I'm guessing this clown drove up from TX.

I was in such a hurry to respond to Realist, location everywhere that I clicked submit before I was through writing...but, as I was saying, how are you going to just categorically say "typical okie behavior" in reference to these two? I don't know where YOU'RE from, but I'd take a BET on it that our State has a lower robbery rate than yours does, or 75% of all OTHER States as well! In fact, I'll bet Oklahoma has a lower OVERALL crime rate than MOST States! If you want to judge, at least keep it within the realm of reality Mr. Realist!!!

A fine looking pair there. All you can do is shake your head in disgust.

Crime is going to get a lot worse, due to this economy. People are going to start robbing stores and then homes. No jobs, can't keep jobs. People are lazy and don't want to work. I lay in bed at night afraid someone is going to break in to my house, not knowing that I have no money either and they will get really mad and do who knows what. My money goes directly to the Bank, then to my bills.
