A 74-year-old Pensacola man is off to prison for 15 years after attempting to rob a store that he visited earlier the same day to apply for a job. 
 
Roy Carlton Keith inquired about a job and left his name and phone number at the Flowers Baking Company.  A few hours later, Keith returned and demanded all the money in the register, lifted up his shirt and pointed at something sticking out of his belt.  The clerk fled to the backroom where other employees were working.  An employee called 911 and Keith left the store, taking nothing with him.
 
Keith was identified by the store employee and arrested at a nearby motel, which Keith listed as his home address.  Keith was found guilty of robbery and two charges of aggravated assault.  The "weapon" it turned out, probably was a cell phone, not a gun.
