Tennessee Players' Getaway Car: A Prius

This is turning into a textbook case for how to fail miserably at armed robbery.

First, Robinson, Jackson and Edwards (allegedly) used a pellet gun for the stick up, a device which is capable of knocking squirrels of tree limbs and breaking human skin if fired from close enough range; Second, the victims in this case apparently had no money on them, which is shocking considering they were all under 20 years old and quite possibly college students; Third, their getaway car was a green machine:

The victims said they showed the two men their empty wallets and said they had no money. A third man then approached the car and told the other two men in hoodies, “We’ve got to go,” DeBusk said.

The three men got into a 2010 Toyota Prius driven by a woman and fled the area.

Officers stopped the car on Neyland Drive near Leinard Lane after it had been seen near Gibbs Halls.

COME ON! WE GOT TO GO! PEEL OUT!”

[bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz]

Although I guess the advantage here is that the Prius makes a low buzzing whisper as it slowly creeps up to speed making it the perfect getaway vehicle had the victims not been within eyesight.
