A man who entered a convenience store at dawn threatened a part-timer with a knife and took money and ran away.

The man committed the crime by stealing a uniform from a convenience store, and was caught by the police less than 10 minutes after he fled to the base of his part-time job.

It is a convenience store in Daegu city around 4:45 a.m. on the 18th.



A man in his 30s, dressed in shabby clothes, stood in front of a convenience store for about 30 minutes after payment, then came into the store and made cup noodles.



A man who was looking around the store while eating ramen noodles suddenly pulled out his weapon from his pocket and began to threaten his part-time job.



[Convenience store owner: (At first) I tried to take him to a corner and threaten him, but now it has failed.

After that (seeing the opportunity), I think he wrapped his neck around him and started threatening him right away.]



This man pushed a part-timer into a warehouse and took his cell phone and uniform for fear of being caught by passersby.



Then, pretending to be a worker, he went to the checkout counter and stole 200,000 won worth of cash and 4 packs of cigarettes, but the escape did not last long.



This is because a part-time student persuaded a man to waste time and reported the suspect to the police as soon as the suspect left the convenience store with a cell phone that he secretly recovered.



In the end, the man was arrested by the police in less than 10 minutes in a parking lot about 250 meters from a convenience store.



[Convenience store owner: (Part-time student) calmly responds saying you shouldn't do this.

I must have been really scared in my heart, but I think there was no major damage because I responded so calmly.]



The police applied for an arrest warrant for a man in his 30s on charges of special robbery.
