Clerk's question foils one robber
Columbus police are investigating an attempted armed robbery …which occurred Monday night … said Columbus Police Lt. Mark D. Starling.
(It) took place at the Corner Cupboard Chevron, 3857 Milgen Road, Starling said. A man entered the convenience store around 8:40 p.m., pointed a handgun at the clerk and handed him a brown plastic bag in which to put the cash he was demanding. The clerk, Rick Lodhi, refused to comply with the gunman instead saying, "Are you crazy? The police are on the way. You should go. I'm going to get my gun. I have you on video," Starling said.
The would-be robber turned and ran from the store without taking anything, Starling said. He was last seen getting into a black, two-door vehicle occupied by another man, Starling said.
