SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — Boy Scouts who were selling popcorn to raise funds for summer camp were robbed of about $80 Sunday evening when a man grabbed the money off their table outside a supermarket in Spokane.

KREM reports (http://bit.ly/p2CUsq ) troop members spent all weekend selling popcorn.

Witnesses say they did not get a very good look at the robber who ran away.
