38 Vocabulary and Grammar
a) Read about an unsuccessful robbery. Answer the questions.
In 2005 two men tried to rob a gas station in Poulsbo, Washington. They told the salesgirl to put all the money from the cash register into a bag, but they didn't realise that there were only eight dollars in it. They drove away with the money, but soon got lost because they weren't from that town and they didn't have a map. They finally drove into a gas station to get directions. Unfortunately for them they'd driven back into the same gas station. The salesgirl had called the police, who were interviewing her when the robbers returned.
