Gross, the prosecuting witness, testified that Lear (D) came into the store and inquired about purchasing some shirts and shoes. Gross took some money out of the store safe and placed a bag of coins on the counter. D then suddenly without warning grabbed the bag from Gross’ hands while he was unwrapping the bag. D ran out the back door. D said nothing, displayed no arms and used no force to grab the bag from Gross. D was convicted of robbery and appealed.
