Irregular News for 05.35.06

 

Pompano Beach, FL -- The Broward Sheriff's Office arrested a man they said tried to rob a convenience store and then told the clerk it was just a joke.

 

BSO investigators said Xavier Florence and another man walked into the Dixieway Food Store on Northwest 15th Street just before 8 a.m. Wednesday carrying a rifle and wearing a bandana over the lower half of his face.

 

According to investigators, Florence, 20, pointed the rifle at the clerk, Sheryl Walker, told her not to move, then uncovered his bandana to expose his face and told her he was "only kidding."

 

Apparently, Florence lives near the store and regularly shops there. Walker, 48, recognized Florence, who told her he wanted to make sure she was prepared in case someone ever tried to rob the place, according to the BSO.

 

Investigators said Florence then walked to the back of the store, took a soda from the cooler, paid for it and left. Walker wasn't hurt.

 

Florence was arrested and charged with attempted robbery. His alleged accomplice has not been identified.
