[November 17, 2007]  GRAND BLANC TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) -- Police are looking for a man they say robbed a Genesee County convenience store wearing a wrestling mask like one seen in the Jack Black comedy "Nacho Libre."

Police tell The Flint Journal the man went in the 7-Eleven in Grand Blanc Township, near Flint, wearing a mask and a black-and-blue outfit Thursday. He fled with a small amount of cash.

Police say a clerk thinks the same man was in the store about 10 minutes before the robbery, wearing different clothes.

In the movie, Black's character wears a red and aqua wrestling suit. He plays a cook in a Mexican orphanage who moonlights as a masked wrestler.
