Louisa VA "the two melon heads" robbed a Sheetz

Police: Man wearing watermelon on his head arrested in Louisa Sheetz robbery

?resize=720%2C960

But despite everything seen in the past two months, the two melonheads who walked into the Louisa Sheetz on May 6 would have turned some heads.

The Louisa Police Department posted a news release on its Facebook page Saturday seeking information about two people who donned hollowed-out watermelons with holes cut out for their eyes and entered the store at 9:35 p.m. May 6.

However, according to a dispatcher with the Louisa County Sheriff’s Office, one of the people in the photo was arrested earlier in the week. After inquiries from The Daily Progress, the post was updated to say an arrest has been made.

Comments on the Facebook post were full of photos from other people who apparently had seen the duo elsewhere in town.
