Kung Fu Robbing

It’s 2:45 a.m on Wednesday. You’re alone. You need money and cigarettes. What do you do?

Why not grab a sword, dress in black and rob a 7-Eleven?

Sound like a bad idea? Well, Phong Nguyen didn’t think so. He robbed a McKinney 7-Eleven while wielding a sword and dressed in black. Very “Ninja” of him, don’t you think?

Too bad he wasn’t as smooth or stealthy as a real ninja. Just minutes after the robbery was reported, the police stopped his Nissan Altima near the store. He still had his sword, the money and stolen merchandise with him.

Perhaps he should stick with something like “Ninja Gaiden for the Xbox” and lay off the cigarettes.  Real ninjas don’t smoke anyway.
