Dateline: Germany—An armed, home-invasion robber was shamed into leaving without a penny after two young children offered him their piggy banks. According to a report in The Local newspaper, the masked man rang the doorbell of a house in Schwanewede, near Bremen, and then forced his way into the residence. Home at the time was a babysitter and the two young children she was looking after. While the man held the babysitter at gunpoint and demanded cash, the two young children came downstairs holding fistfuls of coins. “The children had heard what was going on from upstairs and came down with their money, all their savings.” a police spokesperson said. “The robber must have realized what he was doing was awful and simply put his gun away and left.”
