Thomasville police are still looking for the “Forgetful Bandit” after he left his gun on a counter after a robbery and went back to get it.
At about 7:45 p.m. Tuesday, police responded to an armed robbery at Kong Hibachi at 215 National Highway.
Employees told officers a masked suspect came into the restaurant brandishing a gun.
When employees saw him, they ran out a side door.
Surveillance video caught the suspect breaking a glass jar of change and taking the cash register drawer.
Police say the bandit put his gun down while removing the drawer and forgot to pick it up when he went running out of the restaurant.
About 20 seconds later, he runs back inside to get the back and again makes a run for it.
