Memo to robbers: Don’t hold up the establishment where you’re trying to get a job.
Megan A. Whittaker, 35, of Menasha, Wis., was arrested Sunday and accused of holding up the local Q-Mart convenience store. Cops say she brandished a toy gun and forced the clerk to open the register.
Identification was easy — Whittaker was a regular customer and had recently applied for a job at the store, reported the Oshkosh Northwestern newspaper.
Whittaker realized during the robbery that the clerk knew her, police said. So she told the clerk she was her own twin sister.
Cops found Whittaker at her apartment, along with the $181 and case of beer that had been taken from the store.
She faces up to $100,000 in fines and a 40-year prison sentence.
