null - "That’s not a knife, that’s a knife."
A knife-wielding man who appeared to be attempting to rob a shop in Argentina got quite a shock after the employee he was allegedly threatening pulled out an even bigger knife.
Security footage shared from inside El Estribo Fiambreria in Cipolletti on Oct. 31 showed a man wearing a backpack, a cap and a scarf entering the store and proceeding to approach the counter.
The man then slowly takes out a knife and appears to then make his way behind the cashier's counter before slowly backing away and putting the knife back into his waistband.
The man then exits the store when a shop employee appears on screen wielding an even larger knife.
Once the man left, the store employee who was holding the larger knife smiled as she appeared to show her coworker why the would-be thief left in such a hurry.
A representative from the store told Storyful that the employee with a knife was in the middle of cutting a sandwich when the would-be robber came in.
No one was hurt during the incident.
