Stick this story in the "Local Loozahs" file.
Guy decides to spend his morning robbing people at gunpoint. Two problems - his intended victim is an off-duty Boston police officer, and his weapon of choice that day is a BB gun.
Now why a cop from Dorchester would ever leave the house without carrying, I don't know. But it most likely saved this perp from a fatal case of lead poisoning.
UPDATE: One more for the file - no doubt, this guy drove to New Hampshire to avoid paying sales tax on the cereal.
I'm picturing this idiot in the back corner of the store by the 30-packs of toilet paper, thinking he's Indiana Jones getting ready to switch the idol with the bag of sand. A digital camera in one hand, the other hand shaking cereal out onto the floor until he spills the exact amount equal to the weight of the camera.
Nice try, kid.
