An alleged robber in Georgia got more than he bargained for when the woman he attempted to rob threw up on him.

According to Online Athens, police say that a woman was headed to her car at approximately 10:30 p.m. Saturday after working her shift at a shopping mall. That's when a man, donning a ski mask, lunged from behind another car and hit her.

There was a struggle as the man held the woman against a car while trying to steal her purse. During the struggle, the woman vomited on the man. He fled, driving off in a silver sedan-style car.
