Police say an armed robber gave back everything he stole from a homeless man after learning he lives at a shelter.

The York Dispatch reported that 22-year-old Larry Sanderson was outside theYork Rescue Mission one night when a man displayed the handle of a revolver and told him to empty his pockets. The paper reported that Sanderson turned over his wallet, cell phone, MP3 player and cigarettes.

When the armed man asked Sanderson if that was all he had, Sanderson explained he lived at the homeless shelter.

Police say the robber replied, "I can respect that," returned the man's property and walked away. Nevertheless, we imagine he's still getting coal in his stocking.
