Thank gawd you're late !

Police in Bosnia say three robbers were forced to give up a raid on a post office because the employee who had the key to the safe they wanted to steal from was late for work.

The three masked robbers entered the post office in a village in the north-east of the country and ordered the staff present to open the safe.

But they had to flee empty-handed after being told the safe's key was with an employee who had not arrived at work yet.
