A quirky robber has police puzzled after he canceled his plans to rob a store on Tuesday when he recognized the clerk.

According to NBC News, Colorado deputies said the incident happened a few miles outside of Denver at a local food mart. The man was seen wearing a blue bandanna and hoodie with red and yellow sneakers. When he walked into the mart, the man said to the clerk, "I was going to rob this place, but I know you." He then asked if the clerk knew him. When the clerk replied "no," the man gave him a thumbs up, walked out of the store and robbed a 7-Eleven down the road instead.

Take a look at the video above.
