Stupid Crook Book

[Iceick]

We all know the scene in the movies where the would-be robber sticks his finger in his pocket and pretends it’s a gun, right? Well apparently one robber thought that was a good idea and tried it out in an attempt to rob a Bank of America in Merced, California. But he forgot one thing-he forgot to hide his finger in his pocket. The index-indicating idiot pointed his uncovered finger, with his thumb cocked, of course, at the teller, demanding money. The teller asked the robber to wait, then walked away. After some time the bank robber got tired of waiting. He unloaded his finger, walked across the street to another bank. This time he tried a different approach. He leaped over the counter and tried to wrestle the cash-drawer key from a teller. An employee grabbed the key and told the thwarted thief to “get out of there,” according to Sergeant Gary Austin. The two-time loser was arrested shortly thereafter when he was discovered sitting in a clump of nearby shrubs. I guess now every time he sticks his finger up his nose it can be considered a suicide attempt.
