ABC News: APB for Pluto
Cranberry, PA- A would be robber attempted to inspire fear, but wearing a mask of Disney's Pluto just didn't cut it. The clerk at Gordon's Mini Market burst into laughter when the robber walked into the store at about 9:45pm. The clerk was laughing so hard he didn't comply with the robber's demand to turn over the cash register money. He got so frustrated that he left the store.
Police Sergeant Dave Kovach said the clerk's response was ill advised and dangerous even if it foiled the robbery. "Pluto could have been a strung out heroin addict." "You never know."
Pluto drove away in a car but not before noted that he was 6 ft 2 and appeared to be white under the mask. Police believe Pluto is about 20 years old and weighs about 170 pounds.
