12-year-old girl attempts to rob a market with a loaded gun

Father of 12-year-old who tried to rob store with loaded gun says she did it to try and save her home

The father of a 12-year-old Michigan girl who tried to rob a store over the weekend says she did it because she thought she could save her house. “She’s always been a very good and caring child,” said her father. “That’s a girl that just turned 12-yrs-old here last month,” he said.

Police say the 12-year-old covered her face and then walked into the Country Lake Store near her home, pointed a loaded handgun at an employee and demanded money. She was disarmed by an employee and cried while police were called.
