Man Wearing Women's Evening Attire Robs Gas Station
MONTEREY, Calif. -- Authorities said a thief's getaway plan was foiled when the stockings he was wearing got caught in a car door.
An unshaven man wearing a black evening gown, fishnet stockings, calf-high boots and a black wig robbed a USA Gas station earlier this week, police alleged.
The armed man stuffed $290 in cash into an ensemble-matching black purse.
"I've been with the department for 22 years, and this is the first time I've heard of this happening anywhere here," Lt. Phil Penko said.
About 35 minutes after Monday's robbery, Officer Chad Ventimiglia spotted a black Saab with fishnet pantyhose hanging from the front driver's-side door, dragging on the ground, investigators said.
The car was pulled over and Michael Leslie Clouse, 26, was arrested and booked for investigation of armed robbery.
A plastic replica handgun was found inside his purse, Penko said.
But how could he run in those shoes?
He had to have been practising!
