Banana-drama-arma

Banana-drama-arma

May 16, Salem, North Carolina. Redneck robber, John Steven Szwalla,17, should probably have thought harder about his choice of weapon when he chose to hold up the109 Biz Center on Friday.

According to the Winston Salem Journal, Szwalla had a banana under his shirt when he demanded the day’s takings.

This ploy has always seemed a little pointless. If you have a real gun then show it to the person you are robbing, hiding it under your shirt means that either you don’t have one or the one you have is not very impressive.

The hapless would-be-thief was pounced on by store owner, Bobby Ray Mabe and his staff but before the police arrived he ate the evidence, though the skin was retrieved and will be produced in court.

Szwalla has been remanded on $50,000 bail, it is probably safe to assume that if he can’t afford a gun then he probably can’t cover the bail either…
