overlook something by trying to see clues that are not there

That reminds me of when I was a LEO. I saw a suspicious vehicle and actually foiled a hijack by taking action during a cash bag pickup at a grocery store.
Just a couple days ago my hair kind of stood on end upon seeing one particular car at a 7/11. The driver sat in the car for some time and I went in and to the back of the store to have a vantage point. I fully expected to see a pistol in a hip pocket whenever he decided to come in.
Finally I saw his head bobbing its way into the store then saw him step to the register, where I could see him clearly from the back. At that point it became perfectly clear that if he had ANY KIND of gun, even a water pistol, in his pocket his pants would have come the rest of the way down!
