Workers Involved in Tug-of-War Over Cash Register During Attempted Robbery

Police in Washington appealed for the public’s help on November 13 as they searched for a man who was seen on video attempting to rob a cash register from a Northeast store days earlier.

Surveillance footage of the incident, which occurred just after 6 am on November 7, shows a man grabbing for the cash register across a counter, before two employees attempt to pull it back. Two other people join them, with one hitting the man over the head.
