Possible weapons you might use to rob someone: a gun, a knife…or just a hand gesture?

A guy in Colorado Springs got arrested Sunday night for robbing a convenience store with a finger gun.

35-year-old Antonio Taylor walked into the place, pointed a finger gun at the cashier, and started taking stuff. I assume he had his hand in his pocket, so it looked like it might be real.

He sped off in an SU…a pink GMC Yukon, but police caught up with him nearby. He wouldn’t pull over, but they boxed him in at a gas station. It turned out he had his teenage daughter with him in the passenger seat.

They charged him with multiple crimes, including robbery, but at least it wasn’t armed robbery!
