$336.4 million Powerball jackpot unclaimed

AURORA, Ind., Nov. 8 (UPI) -- Police say they are looking for a man who held up a Swifty gas station in Aurora, Ind., only to forget to take the money with him.
The Cincinnati Enquirer reported Saturday that police said the robber was "no brain surgeon."
Police say the man robbed the store early Monday, tied up the female clerk and then ran out the door with a carton of cigarettes.
After the man realized he forgot the bag of money he tried to go back inside the store but couldn't because the door was equipped with an electronic lock.
