Deputies: Banana used as gun in holdup, then eaten Deputies: Banana used as gun in holdup, then eaten WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. � Authorities in North Carolina say a store owner and a patron thwarted a teen accused of trying to carry out a robbery by concealing a banana beneath his shirt to resemble a gun. Winston-Salem authorities say 17-year-old John Szwalla entered the Internet cafe Thursday and demanded money, saying he had a gun. The owner, Bobby Ray Mabe, said he and a customer jumped Szwalla, holding him until deputies arrived. While they waited, Mabe says the teen ate the banana. Mabe says deputies took pictures of the peel. Forsyth County Sheriff's office spokesman Maj. Brad Stanley says deputies joked about charging Szwalla with destroying evidence. Szwalla faces a charge of attempted armed robbery. Jail officials say he doesn't have an attorney. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090516/...VwdXRpZXNiYW5h Next, he'll appeal everything!:confused_m:

Re: Deputies: Banana used as gun in holdup, then eaten BANANA CONTROL! If bananas are outlawed, only outlaws will own bananas. Think of the children.

Re: Deputies: Banana used as gun in holdup, then eaten It reminds me of that Alfred Hitchcock story where the woman clubbed her husband to death with the frozen leg of lamb and then feeds it to the detectives. The only difference was that she was smarter than the kid who left the peel. One of my favorites. http://www.tv.com/Alfred+Hitchcock+P...003/recap.html
