A criminal who cares

I guess there's no hard and fast rule stating that, just because you're robbing someone at gunpoint, you have to be unpleasant about the whole thing:
Heath Chandler, 31, of Naylor, told police he was in the parking lot of a Wal-Mart store when a man approached and put a semiautomatic gun to his stomach.

The assailant demanded money, so Chandler gave him the $25 he had. The man then took Chandler to a Jeep Cherokee driven by a woman. There, he gave the victim a hug before fleeing in the Cherokee.
You know, now that I think about it, the whole thing probably would have been better without the man-hug. That was probably really, really awkward.
