Bringin a knife to a gun fight..a butter knife


Man tries to rob hotel with a butter knife
AP

RAPID CITY, S.D. – Police arrested a man they said tried to rob a hotel around 6 p.m. on Sunday with a butter knife. The clerk refused to give the man any money, and he left the hotel on foot.

Police said about an hour later they spotted a man matching the description given by the clerk.

Officers arrested a 34-year-old man on a robbery charge. They said they also recovered the knife.

Seriously? This guy would have been better off going in with his shirt tucked in his jacket pretending to have a gun. Or he could have just threatended to beat the clerk up but noone is going to hand over money to a guy with a butter knife. There's letter openers behind the front desk sharper than that.
