TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — Police say a northwest Ohio man hit a gas station clerk in the head with a Bible numerous times forcing the employee back into the store and then demanded cash.

The 57-year-old Abbott Griffin was arraigned on an aggravated robbery charge on Friday in Toledo Municipal Court.

the officers that tried to restrain him. Maybe he doesn't like beer, was planning on picking up a steak and has had issues with his dentist?
