SPRINGFIELD, Ore. (AP) -- Police say a robbery suspect held up a
diner on Monday, went back for seconds on Wednesday and wound up
shooting himself in the foot.

Police say they arrested Clayton Everett Teman, 23, who was
hospitalized. A bullet had gone through his foot.

Springfield police Detective Tom Rappe said the robber
encountered the same clerk in both stickups, and told her the
second time he wanted more.

"He was a little upset due to the amount of money he got the
first time, so he went back hoping to get more," said Springfield
police Detective Tom Rappe.

As he left the diner, police said, the robber ran through a
parking lot and fired several rounds from a handgun, hitting
himself once.

Police said they weren't sure why he fired the gun, but said
they suspected he was using methamphetamine.
