Armed Robbers Steal Cat

Authorities in Texas are baffled over the theft of an adoptable cat from a pet store by two armed men. The men entered the Dallas-area Petco store and walked to the cat's cage.

One of the men held his finger to his mouth while the other pulled up his shirt and displayed a gun.

The men took Simon the cat and fled.

Store volunteers are heart broken over the missing orange-tabby and worried about the cat's fate. Aggravated robbery in the state of Texas is a first-degree felony punishable on conviction by up to 99 years to life in prison.
