In what might be the most confusing robbery attempt of 2024, a Welland gas station was nearly “held up” by a man who thought pulling a green shirt over his head would serve as a master disguise. Spoiler: it didn’t.
On September 23, this fashion-forward suspect strolled into the Esso Gas Station on Ontario Road, brandishing a knife and demanding cash. The brave employee, unimpressed by the sight of what can only be described as a “shirt bandit,” simply refused, and our confused criminal fled.
The suspect is described as:
- Male
- White
- Gray/black hair
- Wearing a Green Shirt pulled over his head, grey slip on shoes and a yellow reusable grocery bag
No injuries were reported, but the incident serves as a reminder that even the most unusual suspects can’t outsmart a well-placed security camera!
