Well, this is one for the books. Two men robbed a U-Haul store in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which isn't really something that you'd expect to make the national news. But one of the robbers was apparently smitten with one of the robbery victims. So he hung around after the robbery and tried to get her to go out with him.
Two men robbed a U-Haul store around 3 p.m. Sunday, taking an unspecified amount of cash, according the store's owner. But instead of fleeing, one man lingered and tried to strike up a conversation with the woman he had just robbed.
"He stuck around and was trying to get the female employee's number," U-Haul general manager Patrick Sobocinski said. "She said he was just saying, 'Hey baby, you're pretty fine.'"
According to Sobocinski, one robber went behind the counter, put his hands around both employees' waists and demanded money.
The robber forced one employee to open the register and grabbed cash. Then he forced the workers to the ground and fled, but his accomplice waited for a few moments and then asked one clerk whether she'd go out with him, he said.
"She said he was saying, 'Can I get your number and go out sometime,'" Sobocinski said.
Love at first holdup. The employee refused, incidentally. Believe it or not, that is not even the most bizarre story today by a long shot. Ontario police are looking for a man with, shall we say, unusual proclivities. In the past few months he's approached a number of women.
And asked them to kick him in the crotch.
GUELPH, Ontario – Police in Ontario are looking for a man who allegedly approached women and asked them to kick him in the groin.
Three women reported similar incidents to police over the past two months, and two of the women reported the suspect was on a bicycle. None of the women reported injuries.
Police Sgt. Cate Welsh said Monday the man's request is not a crime, but they are concerned nonetheless.
How could it be illegal to solicit a game of testicle soccer? America's Funniest Home Videos made a long career out of it.
The guy that loves being kicked would be a hit at any womens studies department.
He was considering getting married and simply wanted to do some research. ( Not! )
Marriage was the best thing that ever happened to me but a lead into a joke is irresistible.
