Is this the dumbest bank robbery you’ll ever see?

A teen accused of robbing a Detroit bank didn’t have a good getaway plan.

Police say a teller at a Chase bank activated electronic locks Monday, trapping the 15-year-old boy between a set of doors on his way out. He was arrested when officers arrived.

Officer Dan Donakowski tells the Detroit Free Press that the teen had threatened to use a bomb if the teller didn’t give him money.

Police don’t believe he had a weapon.

    Some people just aren’t suited for a life of crime. This guy is one of them.

      I read about an even stranger bank robbery in Death To The Novice Attorney (Amazon.con) where a guy who thought he was Moses and had a stick that was a snake and it told him what to do, robbed a bank with two other dudes. Did they get caught? You bet, and the chase is hilarious.

      Hey that asshole robs us everyday and the communist government that put him in turned us into an islamic communist sodomite nation, as if abortion wasn’t bad enough, that the only way they could get God to turn His back on us. they all claim they are against sodomy, but why did they put a sodomite in the head of our government, they truly are in control and us sheeple are so screwed.

    Locking doors as in a “foyer” ? In addition, why not a elevator floor to lower the robber(s) to a room where they can be apprehended by police, then floor would return to the foyer where business could continue as usual?
