That really does suck to be mugged like that. A few months back my sister was working at the liquor store where she's part-time and a normal looking 20 something guy came in. He chatted with her about wine and shit for about 20 minutes before suddenly pulling a gun out and pointing it at her face. She gave him about 800 in cash and he ran out to his car, which the idiot had parked right in front of the store where a customer who came in memorized the plates. Turns out the guy ended up in a chase from the cops and eventually was stopped. Oh, turns out the gun was stolen too, and the guy's name was Mark Schwinghammer.
