A Belgian store owner foiled an armed robbery on Saturday by telling the would-be thieves to return later when there would be more money in the till.
The gang duly complied -- only to be arrested by waiting police officers, broadcaster RTL reported on Tuesday.
"I told them they'd be better off robbing me at half past six," Charleroi e-cigarette seller Didier told the channel. "I could see I wasn't dealing with geniuses."
