YOKKAICHI, Mie -- A jobless man has been arrested for attempting to rob a convenience store here last month while dressed in a monkey suit, police said.


Investigators traced down Takashi Ishimitsu, 31, of Yokkaichi, after a local resident reported having spotted a man dressed in a similar costume.

At around 2:15 a.m. on Jan. 25, Ishimitsu, dressed in a monkey suit, sneaked into the Lawson convenience store's Yokkaichi Hinaga-Nishi outlet, threatened a 26-year-old employee with a knife and demanded money, local police said.
