robber leaves tip for donuts

He botched the robbery so badly, he ended up leaving a tip.

Last week, a man tried to rob a cafe in New Orleans. He entered the cafe in an inconspicuous manner: he wore a blond wig, sun glasses, a pink top and black pants. Unfortunately, he still looked quite like a man.

Then our robber executed his well-thought-out plan. He ordered two donuts and gave the waitress $5. Then, he pulled out a gun and pointed it at her. He demanded that she open the cash register.

The waitress panicked, screamed and dropped to the floor. The robber promptly ran out of the donut shop leaving his $5 and donuts behind.

Think this is a minor crime? A man in Farmington, MO was caught taking a donut without a gun. Unfortunately, he pushed a clerk who tried to stop him. The clerk was unhurt, but the man faces a possible 30 years in prison.
