A store clerk was hit in the head with a hammer during a robbery early Tuesday, and all that was taken was four rolls of pennies, San Antonio Police said.

The attack happened at a Valero store off Medina Base Road on the southwest side.

Twenty-eight-year-old Mae Holly went inside the store and first asked for gas money, authorities said. But, when she did not get any, she left, police said.

Holly then walked back into the store, armed with a hammer, then hit the store clerk in the head with it, San Antonio Police said.

According to police, Holly then took four rolls of pennies, the equivalent of $2, from the register.

Witnesses told police the woman took off from the gas station in her car. Holly was arrested a short time later and charged with aggravated robbery. http://www.woai.com/news/local/story.aspx?content_id=D5C9F2CB-0C66-48A4-8C57-DE20B3678291

A penny (pl. pence or pennies) is a unit of currency or a coin used in several English-speaking countries. A standard but unofficial name for the one-cent coin in the United States and in Canada, worth 1/100 of the dollar.
