When the Chips are down ::: Teen Atempts to rob store with Banana

Nothing surprises me any longer. It seems that as time goes on, the past is repeating itself in some way. Many cities would like to paint the picture that it is free of certain images and actualities. In the case of Winston-Salem, N.C., it is true, they are what they say they are. Crime is not a big issue there apparently, because they have not one real weapon in town. 

Imagine being able to eat the weapon that you used to rob with. This is something that may become an epidemic as the criminals become more desperate to make ends meet. Next you are going to hear stories about banks being robed with Cucumbers and plantain.

Here is the story:

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Authorities say a North Carolina teen who was thwarted as he tried to rob a store with a banana ate it before they could arrive.

Winston-Salem authorities say 17-year-old John Szwalla held the banana under his shirt when he entered the store Thursday, saying he had a gun and demanded money.

Owner Bobby Ray Mabe says he and a customer jumped Szwalla, holding him until deputies arrived. While they waited, Mabe says the teen ate the banana.
