The alleged voices in Jason A. Church's head apparently have a conscience.


Police say the man had no sooner robbed a Springfield convenience store Monday morning, than he was on the phone reporting the crime to authorities.


"He said that he had just robbed the Go Convenience store because the voices in his head told him to," said Springfield police Lt. Scott Leven. "They also told him to apparently turn himself in."


Church approached the ATM machine, but left when clerk Doug Austin told him it was out of order, the document says.


Church allegedly returned a short time later, this time pouring a cup of coffee and bringing it to the register.


"Austin asked the male if he could get him anything else (to) which the male replied, 'All the money in the register," the document says. "The male was holding a broken beer bottle in his hand and pointing the broken end at Austin."


He allegedly told a dispatcher the voices in his head had ordered him to rob the store, and was arrested a short time later.
