日前，一名抢劫犯手持牛油果在两家以色列银行抢走了近8000美元。
A robber made off with almost $8,000 from two Israeli banks after holding them up armed with an avocado.
据《以色列时报》报道，5月中旬，这名47岁的男子先是袭击了南部城市贝尔谢巴一家邮政银行，他递给柜员一张带有拼写错误的纸条，要求柜员给钱。
The 47-year-old man first struck a bank in the southern city of Beersheba in mid-May when he handed a cashier a misspelled note demanding money.
当柜员犹豫不决时，劫匪拿出手中的“手榴弹”威胁说不给钱就扔出去。
When the Postal Bank worker hesitated, the man pulled out what he said was a grenade and threatened to throw it if she refused.
柜员吓得把收银机抽屉里的钱全交了出来，劫匪携4450美元逃离现场。
The woman emptied her cash drawer and the robber made off with $4,450, the Times of Israel reported.
5天后，该劫匪跑进了这家银行在贝尔谢巴的另一家分行故伎重施，这回又成功劫走3300美元。
Five days later, the same man walked into a different branch of the same bank in the same city and repeated the stunt. This time he made off with $3,300.
通过对劫匪手机数据进行定位，警方最终成功追踪到并逮捕了他，才发现他抢劫时拿的哪是什么“手榴弹”，分明是一个涂黑了的牛油果。
Police managed to use mobile phone data from a device the man was carrying to track him down. He was arrested, and it was discovered that the "grenade" he was holding was actually an avocado painted black.
该劫匪有着很长的犯罪历史，包括之前曾因抢劫入狱三年。
The man has a lengthy criminal history, including a previous three-year stint in jail for robbery.
