What was he doing pointing an unloaded gun at the employee?
A couple of my cops friends said there is sorta an urban legend
amongst crooks that if the gun isn't loaded then they think they can't
be charged with armed robbery and they will avoid the extra jail time.
Boy are they mistaken
It is still armed robbery even if the gun is a toy. Or if the
robber just has his finger under a jacket. If the employee
thinks its a gun, it is armed robbery.
