Or are you just happy to rob me?

Police in Winston-Salem, NC, say a 17-year-old tried to rob a store using a banana instead of a gun.

John Szwalla allegedly entered the store with the banana under his shirt, said he had a gun and demanded money. Instead of handing over the loot, the store owner and a customer pounced on him and held him until police arrived.

Extra points: While they were waiting for deputies to arrive, Szwalla ate the banana.

Double extra points: Police photographed the peel and might charge him with destroying evidence as well as armed robbery.
