Gunman Returns $2 to Woman He Robbed, Says He Had Wrong Person

The man told his tearful victim he was sorry after sticking a gun in her face and taking her last $2.

An apologetic armed robber returned his victim's $2 and fled into the night after menacing her with a pistol.

The gunman struck about 9 p.m. in the parking lot of O'Charley's Irish Pub.

Police say a woman pulled into the parking lot of the North Center Street bar and was changing out of her work clothes when there was a rap on her driver's side window.

The woman rolled down her window and the knocker stuck a gun in her face and demanded her money.

The woman gave the bandit $2, told him it was all she had and started to cry. She also showed him her empty wallet.

The gunman then said he was sorry and told her he thought she was someone else before taking off.
