The Big Apple convenience store in West Paris, Maine was the location of a stick-up that went south for the would-be robber after the clerk didn’t buy that she had a gun.

As reported by the Sun Journal, Paige Tuttle, 26, was arrested Friday on a felony robbery charge after the clerk told the Oxford County Sheriff’s Office she had threatened to shoot him if he didn’t give her the cash from the till.

The clerk told officers he noticed Tuttle had made up her finger in the shape of a gun and stuck it under her sweater before the demand, so after she told him, “I have a gun,” he replied, “No, you don’t,” which resulted in her cursing and leaving the scene.

She was later identified from a photo lineup and arrested once a warrant was issued.

Tuttle is in the Oxford County Jail on a $1,000 bond. If convicted on the current charge, Maine state law allows up to 10 years in prison.

Where she’s going she will have to rename her gun stink finger.

[Dr. Sivana]

She needed more fire power, like you get from the Six Finger! My older brother won one of those through his Skeeball skill at Riverside Park.

Drugs.

[DoughtyOne]

Someone should have hit her upside the head with their open carry fist.

[Terry Mross]

Some makeup and fix her hair and she might be not guilty.

They can’t charge her with using a gun. Though they did charge a kid for eating a Poo Tart into the shape of a pistol.

The one thing you don’t want to hear your proctologist say is “You’re going to feel a little prick.”

Dangerous weapon.

It had a nail on the end of it.

No law abiding person needs 10 fingers.

Though they did charge a kid for eating a Poo Tart into the shape of a pistol.

If that's a new delicacy in your neck of the woods, include me out.

[Terry Mross]

I think poo tarts are only available in Maine.

[njslim]

Stick ‘em up! Bang! Bang ! Bang! Cleanup on aisle 3....

[OrangeHoof]

When fingers are outlawed only outlaws will have fingers....

"Though they did charge a kid for eating a Poo Tart"

That kid had suffered enough already.

[Waverunner]

She’s used that finger before. And didn’t wash it.

[bunkerhill7]

He knew it was a fake gun coz she had fake fingernails.

[Two Kids' Dad]

She claimed her ‘gun’ was equipped with a Lee Press-on Silencer.

They can have my Mr. Pointer when they pry it from my cold, dead fist. "Not Thumbkin!"
