A woman who held up a service station in Australia with a knife made a number of big errors along the way that will help police identify her.
Not only did she forget to hide her face, she also wore a revealing top and a glove to conceal her fingerprints on the wrong hand.
She entered the Gold Coast store at about 12.30am Monday local time (2.30NZST) and demanded cash from the attendant.
“There were a number of serious threats to harm the attendant and she fled with a small amount of money,” a police spokesman told Nine News.
She was wearing a glove on her knife-wielding hand in an attempt to hide her finger prints.
The store employee fought back by hurling things at the woman as she fled outside, where police say a man was waiting for her in a 4WD.
Investigations are continuing.
