CORVALLIS, Ore. -- An armed robbery suspect in Oregon is a couple bucks richer after making off with cash from a Corvallis pizza parlor, but the store clerk and customers didn't make it easy for him, Portland TV station KATU reported.Video footage shows the man sticking a gun in the clerk's side and demanding money. But when the robber tried taking cash from the register, the clerk started hitting his arms away.Customers heard the commotion, and tried to stop him."I didn't even know I was doing it," said customer Doug Roelle. "So it was the idea that I wanted to catch him and I wanted to stop him where he was so he didn't do it to somebody else."The suspect did get away with some cash, but no one was hurt.
