A so called 'polite robber', has been filmed on CCTV holding up a petrol station in Seattle.

The robber, who appears to be armed with a gun, asks the cashier, "Could you do me a favour? Empty the till for me please and put it right here. I am robbing you sir."

A man is currently being questioned about the offence by the police.

I saw this, but it's too bad. You have to feel for that man. Either he's a great social engineer or a desperate man.

Yeah, he even stated that he would bring back the money when he got it back.

I find that to be quite interesting. He robbed in a calm way and got away with it

Of course it said he was interrogated. I wonder if I could pull that off.

There is definitely a hint of remorse in his tone.

Sometimes this world will bring you down so far that you'll go to unimaginable lengths just to scrape by.

I somewhat feel bad for the robber, desperate times call for desperate measures, but he is breaking the law. There's always a better way.

Hes a smart guy to do this. Aggresiveness only creates stress.

That was pretty epic. But It's sad to see what people have to resort to nowadays
