Clinton Township Police Sgt. Deena Terzo told the Detroit News that it was a closed bag, so you couldn''t see into it, and no one wanted to open it.

Terzo said that the woman took an as yet unidentified sum of money, fleeing in a getaway car driven by a man.

However, when the Michigan State Police Bomb Squad arrived after the theft, X-rays showed that the bag contained two cans of spaghetti sauce.

The woman remains at large.
