A man robbed a restaurant in Arizona, United States, while wearing a mask of a not-so-friendly neighborhood Spider-Man as his choice of headwear to conceal his identity.
The man entered through the back door of the Hungry Howie restaurant in San Tan Valley on March 12, according to the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office’s post on Facebook earlier today, March 27.
“It appears he had one hand on a handgun tucked into the front of his waistband as he ordered one employee to the ground, while forcing the other to give him money from the safe,” the police said.
The man, who stood between 5 feet 1 inch and 5 feet 5 inches tall, had an all-black outfit except for the bright-red superhero mask, as seen on security footage.
The still-unidentified criminal was able to run off with about $300, according to police. Ian Biong /ra
