Man learns casino losses not deductible
SAN DIEGO, July 12 (UPI) -- San Diego police said an attempted robber fled the crime scene when a convenience store clerk pretended she couldn't speak English.
Investigators said the suspect, who was not described in detail by police, walked into a 7-Eleven store in the Webster neighborhood about 4:30 p.m. Sunday and pointed a gun at the clerk, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported Monday.
Police said the clerk pretended she could not understand English and the intruder, frustrated, fled with no money in a late-model green Ford sedan.
