WEST DANVILLE, Vt. – A thief who robbed a general store apologized to the owner and left the singles behind so workers on the next shift would have something in the till. The knife-wielding man made off with an undetermined amount of money from Joe's Pond Country Store on Wednesday after threatening owner Jeff Downs. "I'm very sorry I have do this," he told Downs. When Downs asked him to leave behind the $1 bills for the morning shift, he agreed.
