Robber leaves tip
A woman held-up a Subway restaurant in Oklahoma and left the clerk a $1 tip after taking all of the money out of the register

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK -- A robber held-up a Subway restaurant in Oklahoma twice. One of those times, she left behind a tip.

The clerk says the woman approached the counter and looked like she was going to make an order, but she pulled out a pistol instead and demanded the cash from the register.

The employee obeyed and handed over the money, but then the robbery took a bizarre turn.

The robber was about to leave when she stopped and looked at the employee tip jar. She pulled out a dollar bill, placed it in the jar and told the clerk, "that's for you."

Police say this same woman is a suspect in a later robbery at this same store.

Despite the conciliatory act, the clerk quit shortly after the incident.
