Would-be robber leaves payoff
FORT WORTH, Texas (UPI) -- A would-be robber forgot to take his payoff from a coin-operated machine he crashed into in Fort Worth, Texas, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram says.
The unidentified suspect crashed a truck into the machine at a Fort Worth gas station, managing to knock the machine's collection box free, but then fled the scene without taking the booty, the newspaper said.
The Aug. 2 incident marked the second time this year such a botched theft occurred at the Fort Worth station, the Telegram said.
The station's car wash was targeted some weeks ago by a would-be robber who left behind a collection box full of coins after it was broken free.
