LONGWOOD, Fla. – Longwood police are searching for a man who tried to rob a Wendy's but ran off because employees were taking too long.
The attempted robbery happened around 11:30 p.m. Sunday at the Wendy's at 815 West State Road 434.
According to Longwood police, a man entered the restaurant and went into the bathroom. When he exited, he had a blue bandana over his face and told the workers, "Give me what you got."
The employees were taking too long, so the man demanded a wallet from a customer, police said. The customer refused, however, and the man ran to a nearby parking lot and got into a waiting car, police said.
The man was described as 5 feet 5 inches tall and 150 pounds. He was wearing a black long-sleeved shirt. Police also said the man appeared to be nervous.
No money was taken, and no one was injured.
