"This is a robbery, I'll wait outside for police, sorry."
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Portland police said a man handed an apologetic robbery note to an employee at a FedEx Kinko's store, then waited for police to arrive. Employee Paul Rhoney said the note said: "This is a robbery, I'll wait outside for police, sorry."
Police Detective Mary Wheat said responding officers found the 46-year-old man outside the store Tuesday morning and took him into custody.
Wheat said no robbery charges will be pursued because the man did not have a weapon and didn't carry out a robbery. Police believe he simply wanted to go to jail.
