TGIS: Thank God It's Schadenfreude! (280)

This week's joy in the misfortune of others comes courtesy of CTV (from Monday, July 26; link good at time of posting):

On July 24, two police officers were heading from the station to the coffee shop across the street, when they had a brief conversation with the 43-year-old New Westminster man standing outside.

According to police, a short time later the officers were inside the coffee shop ordering at the till when the man they had spoken with outside walked directly up to the till, threw a drink at the employee and demanded cash.

"[The officers] looked at each other in astonishment that someone would attempt that with two uniform officers in the room," Sgt. Bruce Carrie told ctvbc.ca.
