Bank Robbery is Back in Style

Bank robbery is once again a popular pursuit. Check out these three recent robbery (attempts).

  • Dennis Hawkins thought fake breasts and a blonde wig would be a good disguise...no one would guess he's really a man, except maybe he should have shaved off his beard first.
  • Peter Lawrence, a 71-year-old in a wheelchair, actually wanted to get caught after robbing a San Diego bank. He told police he wanted to go to prison because the healthcare was good. (Healthcare reform can't come soon enough!)
  • Edward Pemberton was quite a success, robbing two New York banks without even a gun. His weapon of choice: a bouquet of flowers. Police were able to arrest him after canvassing the Flower District.
