A robber who thought he had the chops to rob a business found out the hard way that he really doesn't.

Who Did He Attempt To Rob?

An Atlanta man walked into an Atlanta nail salon with his hand in a bag. He immediately ordered everyone in the business establishment to get on the ground. He was hoping that his hand in the bag would give them the impression that he was holding a gun.

The customers and employees responded by doing absolutely nothing. They all just looked at him. The man yelled, "Who's got the money?" One woman stood up and tried to walk out, but the robber stopped her. He then yells, "Give me the money! Where's the money?" The woman then tell him she doesn't have any, then proceeds to leave the salon.

He then yells, "Everybody give me everything!" Again, no response from anyone in the salon. He was so confused at what was happening, he just turned around and walked out of the business.

Atlanta Police are still looking for the wannabe robber. Below is the security camera footage from the nail salon. As you can seen, no one even acknowledged him. The worker even answered the phone while the the whole attempted robbery took place. Also if you notice, the woman who walked out of the salon didn't seem threatened, because she stood outside of the salon and didn't leave immediately. In fact she's still outside of the salon when the robber gives up and leaves.

The good news is everyone is ok and no one was robbed or hurt. The even better news is this robber looks like an amateur and probably won't be taken seriously the next time he attempts to rob a place.

Two Men Steal Items from Girl Scouts Here In Las Vegas!

Really? See Two Men Steal Statue From Girl Scouts’ Las Vegas Building

Stealing from the Girl Scouts is a pretty lowball crime, but this is just our opinion.

The Girl Scouts of Southern Nevada posted on their Facebook page that two men stole a bronze statue, called "In Grace," on Saturday night at their headquarters.

The Facebook post instantly became flooded with comments from locals, who were perplexed by this petty, yet erroneous, crime.

"What would anyone do this? So disrespectful!" one comment said.

"That is horrible. I hope it is found and returned soon," another one said.

The two statue-stealers were caught on camera. Footage shows the men driving up to the location with a blue or black sedan, removing the statue from its base and then walking away with the bronze sculpture. Footage then shows the pair driving off with their trunk opened, which had the statue placed inside.

Girl Scouts of America CEO Kimberly Trueba said to KVUU-TV, “We are teaching our girls about being kind and considerate and making the world a better place. And then here we have people stealing our sculpture."

Trueba further told KSNV-TV that she thinks the thieves planned this operation prior to it taking place because of the speed and deliberation of the theft.

J.R. Eason is the sculptor behind the missing "In Grace" statue, and the sculpture is meant to serve as a reminder to "transcend the craziness," according to the sculpture's plaque.

"In Grace" is worth $28,000. However, the bronze sculpture would be worth only $500 if it was melted down, Trueba said to KVUU-TV.

The organization filed a police report, and officers told Girl Scout officials that the statue-stealers may have mistaken the bronze statue for being copper, according to KSNV-TV.

In fact, the issue of copper theft has increased in Las Vegas.

On May 9, Las Vegas Metro Police arrested a man who was a key player in a "copper theft" ring. And this is one example out of many involving copper and metal theft around the city.

Despite this recent crime spur, we hope that the Girl Scouts of Southern Nevada can recover their statue and bring it back home.

If you have any information regarding the statue's whereabouts, contact Las Vegas Metro Police.
