A masked man tried to rob his cab driver in Pennsylvania, but he should’ve looked behind him first, because a sheriff’s deputy was watching the whole thing.

Berks County Deputy Sheriff Terry Ely was waiting behind the car, after becoming suspicious when the vehicle failed to move as the traffic light turned green multiple times.

Cameras inside the car captured a man, later identified as 18-year-old Victor Martinez-Herrera, telling driver Ralph Valletta: “Give me all your money man! Give me everything you got!”

I almost had a heart attack in the car ... You know, when that gun's pointed at your head, your body is doing things.
