A knife-wielding robber in Taiwan was so nervous about his performance that he wrote himself a note with the words he was going to say and then read them at the targeted site.

The robber, surnamed Liu, pretended to buy beer at a convenience store on Sunday night when he threatened the clerk with the knife, read the note he had hidden in his pocket and announced a robbery.

After getting the money, he ran away immediately, leaving his motorcycle in front of the store. Local police were alerted to the robbery and seized Liu after 10 minutes at a nearby school.
