Would-be robber stays for wine and hugs

Funny News I read on USA Today.

 A gunman who was attempting robbery ended up falling in love with the wine [Chateau Malescot St-Exupery] that the family was having and left the house without stealing anything.

According to USA Today - "The intruder had a sip of their Chateau Malescot St-Exupery and said, "Damn, that's good wine." The girl's father, Michael Rabdau, 51, told him to take the whole glass, and Rowan offered him the bottle. The would-be robber, with his hood down, took another sip and a bite of Camembert cheese and put the gun in his sweatpants."
