Police in Butte (yes . . . ), Mont., are looking for a leprechaun who behaved like a modern-day bandit.

According to Butte Police Capt. Doug Conway, an unidentified man dressed in a leprechaun costume robbed a local coin laundry at gunpoint on the eve of St. Patrick's Day. The suspect wore a fake black beard, mustache, a black plastic hat and a green kilt. He entered the store at around 11 p.m., opened his jacket and showed the clerk the handle of a gun tucked into his waistband. He then demanded money.

"He told the clerk that he was looking for his pot of gold," Conway said. The man escaped with about $300. He is described as a white male in his 30s, approximately 5 feet 9 inches tall.
