August 20, 2015 A man dressed as if he was ready to go fishing held up a Northeast Philadelphia post office Thursday afternoon.
The man – described by postal workers as being in his 50s or 60s with a bushy gray beard – wore a bucket hat, striped shirt and tan cargo shorts when he walked into the post office at 6382 Castor Avenue around 4:20 p.m. and pointed a gun at a postal worker.
The man – who remained calm and collected throughout the incident – grabbed cash, money orders and more before making his getaway on foot, said the US Postal Inspection Service.
Luckily no one was hurt.

I watched the video. It looks like ur run-of- mill street panhandler, turn armed robber. Hopefully he’ll be nabbed and will get free room and board in a federal prison 4 the rest of his life.
