BRIEF: East Bremerton clerk says he's too busy for robbery; suspect leaves


Dec 29, 2012 (Kitsap Sun - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- EAST BREMERTON -- A woman carrying a gun tried to rob the Sheridan Mini Mart late Thursday, but the clerk, who was on the phone, couldn't be bothered, according to Bremerton police.



The suspect came into the convenience store, on Sheridan Road at Pine Road, about 10 p.m. The clerk noticed she was clutching a gun, but at first thought it was a joke, police said.

The suspect told the clerk to unload the till. The clerk said he was busy and kept talking on the phone. The robbery suspect then left, police said.


Police, helped by a tracking dog, couldn't find the suspect.

Anyone with information about the suspect is asked to call 911.
