I thought this would be better here since its so screwed up:
A would-be robber looked so goofy — well, Pluto, actually — that a convenience store clerk burst out laughing, foiling the attempted holdup.
Cranberry, Pa., police Sgt. Dave Kovach told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that the man walked into Gordon's Mini Market (search) Tuesday evening wearing a mask disguising himself as Pluto, Mickey Mouse's long-eared, tongue-wagging dog.
The cartoon canine walked up to the counter, pulled out a gun and demanded cash from the till.
The clerk, alone in the store with the robber, took one look and broke into laughter.
"The frustrated Pluto robber then left the store," Kovach said.
Another witness saw a white male, about 20 years old, get in a car and drive away.
Kovach said that laughter isn't usually the best crime deterrent.
"I don't want to give the impression that that's an advisable thing to do," he told the newspaper. "Pluto could have been a strung-out heroin addict. You never know."
This made me laugh when I heard about it :evilgrin:
