    He didn't use a fruit or vegetable as a weapon by any chance?

    I heard he had a knife but who knows. Though I don't get how a knife would be useful considering the thick glass at the counter. Really wanna know the details to this!

    According to The Champion he had no weapon, and got away with 2 grand.
