GAINESVILLE, Ga. - A Gainesville man's attempt to rob the employees of a local business became than he bargained after it turned into what police described "like a scene from Home Alone."
The Gainesville police say that 30-year-old Luis Sajbocho-Ordonez had hid himself behind a business on the 400 block of Atlanta Highway in the early morning hours of Christmas Day.
When an employee exited the store, police say Sajbocho-Ordonez pulled a gun on them and demanded cash, leading to a struggle.
Investigators say Sajbocho-Ordonez became startled when another employee left the building and fired a shot, which didn't hit anyone.
As the alleged armed robber tried to run off, however, he lost control on an icy patch, slipped, and hit his head, police say. Witnesses were able to grab two guns he had on his person while he was lying on the ground injured.
Police found Sajbocho-Ordonez still on the ground when they arrived. After treating his injuries, officers took him into custody and transported him to the Hall County Jail.
Sajbocho-Ordonez is now facing charges of armed robbery and aggravated assault. Additional charges are also possible.

Oh Lord, please stop.
First the guy in Florida having a dickectomy by cop and now half of the Wet Bandits caught in Georgia.
Almost too much for this old heart.

Yes. I first saw Georgia in Jan, of 1971 traveling with my family from VA to CA. It was a snowstorm the entire trip across it.

He’s lucky he didn’t die, like Natasha Richardson did.

“ The Gainesville police say that 30-year-old Luis Sajbocho-Ordonez…”
I’d love to learn his immigration status.

Reminds me of that old tall story . . .
Looks like maybe he had a little "help" falling on that ice.
