GLADSTONE, Ore. (AP) — A would-be robber got more — and less — than he bargained for when he tried to hold up a Pizza Hut restaurant in Gladstone, Ore. , south of Portland. Police say a female clerk at the restaurant wrestled with the man, then bit him to keep him from getting any money from the till.
The man was armed with a knife, but left empty-handed with a wound on his left forearm.
Gladstone police spokeswoman Sgt. Lynne Benton says at one point the clerk had the man in a headlock. And although he reportedly was threatening to stab her, she kept fighting.
Benton says the man entered the restaurant Wednesday afternoon, showed the knife and demanded money.
