Teen Robbers Create a Few Laughs
From Lowering the Bar, we get this humorous story about two teenage robbers who didn't think things through. Before going into the store, they caught the attention of a passerby with their elaborate preparations, such as covering their license plate, in full view of the road. Wen they attempted to rob the store, the owners refused to be intimidated and chased them back outside. The passerby, who happened to be an off-duty security guard, was waiting for them.
While he was holding them down, waiting for the police, the Korean woman who owned the store began hitting them with a flyswatter. "The humiliation was then made complete when, apparently by pure coincidence, the mother of one of the robbers happened by."
