In one recent and very strange incident, a crook targeted a 7-Eleven in Australia. He was armed and disguised but not in the traditional sense.
For a weapon, the suspect chose a chainsaw. As part of his facial covering, he opted to wear a flower pot over his head.
Despite the comical aspect, the robber managed to terrify store workers. When he walked into the business at about 4:30 on a Monday morning, the chainsaw was running.
He reportedly lunged at employees. Luckily they were able to get away from the suspect and fled into a back room. He used the chainsaw to damage a store window at one point during the crime.
He also exposed his bare backside to workers. The robber demanded money, however he ended up taking off on foot without getting the desired cash. He was able to make off with a soft drink however.
The suspect had left by the time police arrived but it didn’t take long for officers to catch up with him.
They found the male, later identified as 19-year-old Steven Frank Steele walking down the street. He was arrested and is now facing a slew of charges.
