A Pennsylvanian man robbed an eatery where he actually went for a job interview and to his ‘surprise’, the police traced him by means of information on his job application form and the belongings he left behind.
The 22-year-old Nicholas M Mark who went to a pizzeria to interview for a job changed his mind and instead stole the tip jar filled with cash. When an employee of the pizzeria chased him, Mark threatened him with his knife and escaped there.
However, this all came after he had applied for the job with all his details and contact information listed by the eatery named Pizza D’Oro.
