Robber Uses Craigslist to Recruit Decoys

A robber hired 12 men on CRAIGSLIST to show up for a job wearing the same thing the robber wore while jacking an armored truck: a yellow vest, safety goggles, a respirator mask and a blue shirt. The plan -- which worked, apparently -- was to pepper-spray a guard using a pump sprayer, grab a bag of money and run into a nearby creek for the getaway. The unwitting accomplices were all standing nearby waiting for work when police went looking for the robber, all of whom matched the description of the crook given by eyewitnesses.
