Man Tries To Rob Bank By Phone
Man Tries To Rob Bank By Phone

POSTED: 8:54 am EST December 10, 2005

WELLINGTON, New Zealand -- A man who robbed a New Zealand bank was so disappointed with his haul he tried again -- this time by phone, police said Saturday.

"He's rung (the bank) and said 'I'm the guy who robbed you the other day and I want the manager to put some money in a bag and go and stand in the street," said Detective Sergeant Chris Winder of the Auckland Police.

"(He said) 'I'll drive by slowly and take the bag from you and drive off.'"

A plain clothes police officer stood outside the bank in the northern city of Auckland on Friday carrying a bag but the man did not appear. Instead, he called again.

2. Except it would take him an hour to stutter through the demand
And the person still would not know what he wanted :)
