Dumb Criminal of the Day: Remorseful Bank Robber Turn Self In 30 Minutes Later

Robbing a bank usually takes some planning. If a crook goes through all that planning I’d assume he would have debated the moral complications of the crime, but this guy from Cincinnati proved me wrong yet again.

According to Cincinnati.com a man in his 30’s, wearing a black hat and carrying a plastic bag entered a US Bank location Friday afternoon and handed the teller a robbery note. He then fled the bank with $2,000 in stolen cash.

However, less than 30 minutes later 911 dispatchers received a call from a man who claimed to be the one who robbed the bank. He said was turning himself in and that police could pick him up at a shopping center near the bank. And pick him up they did.

This might be one of the easiest bank robbery cases to crack, ever.
