A female robber in her 30s, who was aiming for a convenience store guarded by a female store owner in her 50s, was rather subdued.
The Gangnam Police Station in Seoul announced today (16th) that they are investigating a 30-year-old man suspected of attempted special robbery.
A entered a convenience store in Nonhyeon-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul with a weapon at around 4:50 pm on the 11th.
After checking the inside for a while, Mr. A took out a weapon from his bag and threatened Mr. B, the shopkeeper, who was at the checkout, saying, "Give me money.
At this time, another customer came into the convenience store, and Mr. A immediately turned his gaze towards the entrance.
Mr. B took advantage of this time to take the weapon that Mr. A was holding and subdue it.
The police, who arrived after receiving a report from a convenience store customer, caught Mr. A at the scene. It was reported that Mr. A did not make any resistance until the police arrived.
During the police investigation, Mr. A stated that he was suffering from hardship and committed the crime accidentally. It is also known that the weapon in the bag was also claimed to be possessed for purposes other than robbery.
After investigating the exact circumstances of the crime, the police said that they plan to send Mr. A to the prosecution with an opinion of indictment within this week.
