Tampa Bay Residents Are Calling This The Worst Robbery Attempt Ever

There is a video going viral of a robber attempting to rob a nail salon in Atlanta. We talked about this on my radio show here in Tampa and many of the residents are calling it the worst robbery attempt ever. This robber failed miserably and Im glad he did. Police authorities are currently searching for him.

After watching the video, Im wondering if he even actually had a gun. You can hear him yelling "Get on the ground and give me your money!" The funny part about this is that they were all pretty much ignoring him. When he realized nobody was bulging he decided to leave without violence.  The get away car is a silver sedan. The video captures the suspect exiting the premises and fleeing the scene in a silver sedan.

Once he's caught, I imagine he will be very embarrassed. Im glad that he didn't resort to shooting or harming anyone. It seems as maybe this was his first time trying something like this. I almost thought it was fake, like for a Tik Tok skit or something. As the story develops, I will keep you updated.

I love living in Florida! I have been here since 2012 and wouldn't change it for the world. Ive lived in Fort Myers and currently live in St. Petersburg.  So many of my friends want to move to Florida and if you do as well, you have come to the right article. A list of the most dangerous cities in Florida was created by Property club.
