This is from the New York Post:
At least four times, Brian Williams has claimed he was robbed as a teen while helping a local church with their Christmas tree fund raiser:
“That wasn’t a bad job, until a guy came up and stuck a .38-caliber pistol in my face and made me hand over all the money. Merry Christmas, right? Of course, I suddenly appreciated the other jobs I thought I hated.”
Long-time residents of the town say it’s bunk. The man who ran a restaurant near the site of the alleged crime said, “I find it hard to believe anyone was held up in this area in the ’70s. It was very safe.”
One elder resident said, “I was born in Red Bank, there were no crimes like that. Tell Brian Williams to stop lying.”
Another elder resident called it “a very peaceful town” where kids walked alone at night and “no one locked their cars.”
