Two off duty officers stopped Thomas Spillner 21 after a local lounge robbery in which he demanded cash and forced a victim to eat a pill before attempting to dance. Spillner, found with a cocked .38 derringer, was charged with armed robbery carrying a concealed weapon and driving without a valid license.
