NZPA-AAP London A petrol station cashier, Andrew Hills, foiled two robbers by swallowing the till key. The London “Star” newspaper reports that Mr Hills, aged 19, was attacked at knifepoint and had an arm broken but bravely chased off the robbers with a baseball bat. Then the cool hero took the day off . . . waiting for nature to make the key reappear so that his employer could open the till.
