Police Not Stumped By 'Tree' Robber
Updated: 16:24, Monday July 09, 2007
Police in America have arrested a man who robbed a bank 'disguised' as a tree.
CCTV footage shows the man entering the bank with branches and leaves taped to his body.Was raider barking mad? After patiently waiting in the queue with fellow customers, the man makes his move, ordering the bank cashier to fill a bag full of cash, Fox News reported.
Unfortunately for the suspect, a dye pack inside the bag exploded.
And in a second stroke of bad luck, the man's face could be clearly seen by the CCTV camera through his foliage. He was later arrested at his home in Manchester, New Hampshire.
It is just the latest in a run of odd attempts by robbers trying to get their hands on some extra cash.
