Payday loan business robber's disguise nearly matched that of real delivery driver
BATON ROUGE - Newly-released surveillance images show the clever disguise a man used to try to rob a payday loan business this week.
Tuesday evening, a man dressed in what appeared to be a UPS uniform tried and failed to rob the Check Into Cash on Coursey Boulevard. Deputies said the man had a gun and was hoping to steal from the business but ran away through a backdoor when he couldn't break into the store's safe.
Wednesday, authorities released an image of the person - dressed like a delivery person and carrying what appeared to be a box.
Detectives believe the outfit was not a real uniform, but put together to closely resemble the iconic brown delivery suits worn by employees of the delivery service.
