| A bank clerk didn't need a weapon to ward of a would-be robber. When the masked man pulled out a gun, she just laughed in his face. The suspect was so humiliated he ran away. The bungled holdup occurred Thursday at a small bank on Zagreb's [Croatia] main square, police said. The 31-year-old clerk, identified only as Martina S., "laughed aloud" at the threat from the bandit because she knew she was protected by a bulletproof glass, said Gordana Vulama, a police spokeswoman. After cackling at the thief, she coolly picked up the phone to call police, Vulama said. The failed robber spun around and fled the scene, police said. Police are searching for the suspect, Vulama said. |
