Man attempts Uni-Mart robbery: A clerk at Uni-Mart, 151 S. Garner St., reported that a man in his early 20s, about 5-feet-10-inches tall, attempted to rob the store early yesterday morning, State College Bureau of Police Services said.
The suspect told the clerk twice to give him the money from the cash register, but the clerk ignored him, police said. The suspect then began feeling around in his pocket, but the clerk told him that he did not believe he had a gun and asked the suspect to show it to him.
As the clerk began reaching for the telephone, the suspect attempted to open the register himself, knocked it on the floor and ran from the store, police said.
Police have no suspects at this time.
