Man Robs Gas Station, Runs Out of Gas

I see the tiny flaw in your plan there: If you're going to rob the gas station and make your getaway, probably best to buy your gas FIRST, then rob the place with a Bowie knife (I assume that's bigger than a Butter knife). Oh well, live and learn, right? Here's more from The Naples News:
The Charlotte County Sheriff's Office says 23-year-old David Eric Hampton used a Bowie knife to rob a Cape Haze gas station early Sunday. Deputies say Hampton pulled the 12-inch blade and demanded money. But when he left, a customer followed him and called 911. While deputies were looking for signs of the robber, a newspaper carrier told them that a man in a car matching the one from the robbery had run out of gas nearby. Hampton was arrested several hours after the robbery and charged with robbery with a weapon and loitering/prowling.
Thanks to reader Mike C. for the link!
