MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Authorities say an armed robber was foiled at a Madison, Wisconsin, convenience store when he cut the clerk’s finger and her blood made it impossible to open the cash drawer with the register’s computer screen. The robbery occurred around 9:25 p.m. Monday at a 7-Eleven. Police say a masked suspect was armed with a box cutter and sliced the woman’s finger when he charged at her. Police say the cash drawer is controlled by a computer touch screen that does not function when wet. The robber instead grabbed some cigarettes and fled to a getaway car. The suspect remains on the loose.
