Apparently the Troll in Central Park isn't the only one with a green thumb...this man is breaking hearts... and bank accounts:
"NEW YORK – New York City's bouquet bandit has a green thumb. Police said Tuesday that a man wanted for robbing a Manhattan bank while armed with a bouquet of flowers has struck before — using a potted plant.
On Monday, police released a security photo of a man holding fresh flowers that were neatly bundled in pink tissue paper and plastic. Hidden inside the arrangement was a note demanding $50 and $100 bills and a message for the teller, "Don't be a hero."
On July 10, police say the same man appeared at another Manhattan bank, holding a threatening note under a leafy plant and handing it to a teller. He reached over the counter grabbed the cash before he fled, leaving the plant behind.
He is still at large."
Um, did he have a gun? Why would they give him the money? This man is an idiot, but the people who let him go are just as faulty. You work at a bank. You should know how to deal with these situations. What is he going to do, throw pollen at you? Maybe there's a bee hidden in the flower that will sting you?
I wish my prom date would have done this with my parents... the after party would have been a lot more fun.
