Clingon Robbery

Posted: Updated:

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) - Colorado police say a man with too much "Star Trek" on his mind used a sword modeled after the weapon carried by Klingon warriors to demand money from two convenience stores.

Investigators say the man took an unknown amount of cash from a 7-Eleven store yesterday but left empty-handed when he tried to rob another store about 25 minutes later. Police Lt. David Whitlock says no one was injured.

The StarTrek.com Web site says the double-pointed sword used by the Klingons on "Star Trek" is crescent-shaped and about a yard long. Police did not specify what material it was made of. No one has been charged in the incident.
