GREENSBORO, N.C. — Four people who tried to rob a Chinese food delivery driver left him an unusual tip: a cell phone.

Ming Jing Lu arrived at a Greensboro residence with a delivery and noticed a group of people who made him suspicious, police said.

As the group ran toward him and attempted to grab him, a cell phone fell into the China Garden employee's car. The group then chased him down the street, trying to get the phone back, said Greensboro Police Sgt. Gerald Stephens.

"It was just a comedy of errors," Stephens said.

Police arrested three juveniles and one adult on robbery charges.
