BERLIN (Reuters) - A German baker thwarted an armed robber by bombarding him with bread rolls and cakes, a police spokesman near the small western town of Wetzlar said on Friday.

The masked offender got a pasting after bursting into the bakery and demanding money at knifepoint. Instead of handing over the dough, the baker, 47, unloaded a barrage of bread rolls and pastries sending the robber scurrying out the door.

Well, I did.
