CINCINNATI —
Two men armed with a cicada apparently stole $25 from a restaurant’s cash register after using the six-legged insect to scare away the cashier, police said.
The two men reportedly walked into the restaurant Thursday brandishing the cicada, a large insect like a fly. They thrust it at cashier Marquisa Kellogg, 22, who fled, police said.
Kellogg later returned to the register and found $25 missing, police were told. Police said the incident is under investigation.
