Doh! Bread roll robber shoots mate

A bungling armed robber shot his female accomplice as they held up a restaurant in the Dandenong Ranges east of Melbourne overnight.
The couple waited until after the last customers had left the Cuckoo restaurant, in Olinda, before confronting a staff member by his car in the restaurant's car park .
The pair demanded the staff member hand over a black plastic bag, which it is thought they believed contained the restaurant's takings.
However, the bag actually held left-over bread rolls, which the staff member was planning to feed to his chickens.
Restaurant General Manager Horst Lantzsch said the bandits then demanded the staff member's car keys.
He said as the staff member handed over the car keys, the shotgun discharged, wounding the woman in the stomach.
"She got injured very heavily, and she fell to the ground in the middle of the street in Olinda main road," Mr Lantzsch said.
"She dropped to the ground like a sack of potatoes."
Mr Lantzsch said he and his staff member then ran inside the restaurant and locked the doors.
They could hear the woman screaming in pain as they called police. Before police arrived, the man carried the woman to the road where they were picked up by an accomplice.
Mr Lantzsch said no staff were injured, no money taken and no damage was caused in the attempted robbery.
"It was frightening, everybody was a bit in shock," he said.
"It came out of nowhere, all over a bag of rolls.
"I hope the lady is all right. Nobody wants to see anybody get shot, whoever they are."
The injured woman took herself to the William Angliss Hospital before being transferred to The Alfred Hospital in Melbourne with serious injuries.
An Alfred hospital spokeswoman said the woman was in a stable condition.
A 37-year-old Brooklyn man was arrested shortly after 5am and was being questioned by detectives, Victoria Police spokesman Senior Constable David Fitzgerald said.
