Mister, you picked the wrong Salon to rob. A would-be robber, ?picked the wrong business and the wrong cowboy to mess with,? when he entered a Phoenix storefront and pulled out a gun. That?s because Rodd Wolff leads a double life. He is a movie stuntman. In training for roles in films like ?Rambo III?, ?Bill & Ted?s Excellent Adventure? and ?Miracle at Sage Creek?, Wolff had to be able to shoot a gun while riding a horse. He got a chance to put those cowboy skills to use in the unlikely setting of the business he owns, a hair salon.

Jason Statham Communes With Bank Robber For Film Research
2008-03-04 16:29:00 Jason Statham, you know - British, hunky, picks really bad movies to star in, got some excellent research done for his latest film "The Bank Job". The flick is based on a real life bank robbery that took place in Britain in the 1970's. Statham says that one of the actual thieves, who was never caught, visited the set. Way to remain inconspicuous, guy. "We were very lucky. One of the chaps came to the set. We tried to keep his identity undercover. He didn't want to glamorize himself. A lot of people thought he was my dad coming for a set visit. Remarkably he looked a lot like me. He told us some great stories about the day," Statham says. Way to enable crime, Jay. British authorities banned the media from reporting on the crime, which took place at a central London bank in 1971. And now they get to visit movie sets without fear of arrest? Is this like one of those things where you burn down your house to get the insurance money? Photos: WENN More photos of Jason Statham ar...

2008-02-10 04:12:00 Boise, Idaho (The Weekly Vice) -- Two civilian bystanders in a convenience store thwarted a robbery attempt with what seemed to be the best tool at the time, a six pack of beer.According to police, 46 year old James Edward Bridges walked into Jackson's store, shoved aside the clerk, and started grabbing handfuls of cash out of the register.Lt. Dave Dietz, an off-duty prison guard approached the robber and bonked him in the head with what was in his hand, six glass bottles of beer."And as soon as I saw the back of his head and he wasn't really paying attention to me, I took that six pack of beer and swung it as hard as I could and hit him in the back of the head with it," said Lt. Dietz."It broke all six beers. There was not a single beer left cause I looked afterwards to see if any of them survived, and they did not," he added.The would-be robber was brought to the ground from the blow.

German Robber vs. Salami Sausage : 0 - 1
2008-02-02 20:35:00 BERLIN - German police have charged a robbery suspect after matching his DNA to that found on a piece of salami spat out at a crime scene.The bitten-off chunk of the telltale sausage was discovered at a building that had been broken in to in the southern city of Darmstadt in April.Police say the 37-year-old man was taken into custody in early January after police ran his name through their computers at a highway spot-check and found he was wanted for several other crimes.Once in custody, he was linked to the Darmstadt break-and-enter through the DNA sample on the salami and charged.But it seems the rejected meat was not the robber's only slip up: he has been charged with a total of 19 break-ins after other links were found.The man, whose name was not released, remains in custody while police investigate.source: http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Wei-rdNews/2008/01/31/4804020-ap.ht-ml
