attempted robbery with a deadly Potato

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Providence police have arrested a man who allegedly wielded a potato disguised as a gun during a robbery attempt last week.

34-year-old Gary Deming of Cranston was arrested on robbery charges. Authorities say he pretended he had a gun when he demanded money from a convenience store and dry cleaner April 21.

The convenience store manager chased him off with a baseball bat. A dry cleaner employee gave him a fake $20 from a decoy register.

Why wasn't the dry cleaner employee arrested for passing counterfeit money ?

Because no one seen him do it! The potato had eyes, but it was totally blind.

He didn't give the $20.....he had it taken from him.
