Man Tries and Fails to Rob Convenience Store Using a PlayStation Controller

This doesn't seem like a good plan for a robbery. According to a local news report, the suspect:

[...] hid the game controller in his pocket and pretended it was a gun as he tried to rob the Sun Food Store on 62nd Avenue S.

He was arrested by a police officer who walked into the store in the middle of the robbery, police said.


Talk about bad luck! If only he brought a caulk gun instead, it might have worked.

it's one of those money purse-carrying fobs that asians used to wear when they had those kimonos and yukatas on or whatever. The string on those things is put on your belt, and then your purse could hang off of that by the purse strings.

They actually look something like bird calls. The parts are rubbed together to make a chirping sound. Maybe that's why the guy's face looks like a cat?

I think it's a childs cap toy. You insert the cap into the toy, then drop the toy onto the sidewalk. The striker moves up and sets off the cap.

Is cord stop the right word? The little thing that tightens a bag or adjusts an item of clothing with a draw string closure--it grips rather than ties. cord grip? cord stop? cord toggle? banana?
