Authorities in Toledo, Ohio said a woman and her son robbed an area tax preparation office with nothing more than a curling iron wrapped up in a towel.

The Toledo Police Department said Sonia Watson and her son Antonio are on the run after robbing Liberty Tax Services of $280, WUPW-TV reported.

Officers said the duo entered the business, threatened the employees and then Watson struck a woman with the curling iron when she refused to give up her possessions. The pair fled the office but were caught on surveillance video as they exited.

Good thing she wasn't using a protractor - she might have been charged with possessing a weapon of math instruction.

You've been waiting to use that one, haven't you?

People have been banned for less than that.

I like to live on the edge. And occasionally the vertex.

Are you suggesting she could be a member of the notorious Al Gebra movement?
