Forget about the "Screwdriver man."
Last night, a female College sophomore was held up on the 4200 block of Spruce Street at point-of-crayon, Division of Public Safety officials said.
The student was walking home at around 9 p.m. when she was confronted by a short child holding a crayon.
The suspect was described as a 3 foot, 9 inch male, about 5-6 years old with a rattle.
He allegedly threatened to use the crayon as a weapon - she responded by giving him her wallet.
The crayon-wielding bandit then fled west.
"He was holding a fuschia-colored crayon," the women said. "I hate fuschia and didn't want him to draw on me. What's a girl to do?"
