A 20-year-old woman has managed to convince a man attempting an armed robbery in Florida to walk away, by preaching to him about Jesus.

The man said he needed money to pay his rent but the Christian shop manager convinced him that he should choose another path.

Interesting interview with the woman afterwards

It was reported on the news that he tried to rob a shoe store two hours later, was arrested and now sits in jail.

My feeling is he was not the usual criminal and was acting out of desperation. He still knew right from wrong and had a conscience.

Times are very tough for a lot of people :Oh crap

Poor guy.
