Man uses drill bit to rob victim in Brookside, police say

A man was robbed in broad daylight in Brookside on Monday, Tulsa Police say, by a suspect who had a weird choice in weapons: a drill bit.

Anthony Anson is accused of threatening the man with the drill bit and taking his phone.

But police say the man got to a different phone and called police, who quickly spotted Anson.

Anson then tried to claim that HE was the one who had been robbed, police say.

“Officer didn't buy it, found that he had the phone is his pocket, and our victim was able to unlock the phone with his code to show that it was his phone,” said Tulsa Police Officer Danny Bean.

Anson was arrested.
