Wow, The Bigger the Tobacco Can, The Bigger the Live Saver, who knew Tobacco Saves Lives, certainly the Robber didn't.
Certainly somewhere, there is a Tobacco Advertiser who is aware of this story is looking at making a buck or two to spin to their Tobacco Manufacturer to showcase tobaccos lifesaving abilities.
Iowa store clerk foils robbery, pelts masked man with cans of chewing tobacco
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESSDES MOINES, Iowa -
A cigarette store cashier has snuffed out a robbery in Iowa.
Police say a masked man flashed a knife at the Cigarette Outlet and forced one employee to the floor.
He then demanded money from another worker, Ruth Wright.
Instead of cash, Wright threw two cans of chewing tobacco at the robber, and one hit him in the face.
Officers say a customer then tackled the man, but the robber broke free and bolted out the door.
The incident happened last Friday.
