JACKSONVILLE, N.C. -- Authorities in North Carolina say a sword-wielding bandit wearing a Spider-Man mask walked into a convenience store Wednesday and demanded money. The Onslow County Sheriff's Department said the clerk pulled out a broom and poked him in the stomach. A second clerk joined in the struggle. The suspect fled and was found at a nearby home.
Fifty-six-year-old Dale Foughty faces several charges. He is jailed under $100,000 bond. It wasn't immediately known if he had an attorney.
