Sloppy Bank Robber of the Week

Here's a lesson for all you would-be bank robbers: Work on your handwriting. Last week, a man walked into a bank branch down in New Castle, Delaware, and handed the teller a note. She couldn't read the writing on the note, so she handed it back to him and asked him if he could rewrite it.

Apparently, he wasn't just asking for his account balance. The teller's request completely spooked the man, who fled from the bank on foot. A local police officer spotted him, though, and arrested him. The man is now being held on charges of attempted robbery.

Let that be a lesson to you. If you ever walk into a bank and give the teller a note asking what their 90-day CD rates are, make sure you write very clearly.
