WORLD'S POLITEST THIEF PINCHED

COPS have caught the "polite" thief who stunned a Seattle store owner with his good manners.  
The courteous armed bandit showed impeccable conduct during the hold up, seen in this footage:  


The man is seen in the video telling White Center Shell station owner John Henry: "I'm robbing you, sir."
He takes $300, apologizing and saying he has bills to pay and children to feed. If he ever gets back on his feet, he tells Henry, he'll pay the money back.
Sgt. John Urquhart of the King County Sheriff's Office says officers quickly identified a suspect from tips received after surveillance video of Saturday's robbery "went viral."
He did not identify the 65-year-old man arrested Monday at a residence near the robbery site but the suspect has convictions for armed robbery and forgery.
