ALBANY -- City police on Tuesday were searching for a man who single-handedly robbed SEFCU at 16 New Scotland Ave. Police say that a 5' 9'' white male walked into the credit union branch just after noon Tuesday and demanded money. The man did not show any weapon, nor imply that he had one, police said. A teller gave him an undisclosed amount of money, which the suspect placed in a black plastic bag, according to police. No one was injured in the incident. Police described the suspect as missing his left arm from the elbow down, wearing a white baseball cap, oversized white T-shirt and denim shorts.
Huge week for less than two armed hellions, huh?
This couldn't have been too hard to solve though, obviously an inside job. How do I know this? Because how could a one armed robber simultaneously slip a note to the teller and hold him up with a gun at the same time? Answer, he couldn't. It's one or the other for this dude. Teller had to be on it. Like if I roll into TD Bank tomorrow with a post it note asking for money and nothing but a smile on my face I don't think I'm walking out with the loot.
Curious question though, what was the get away plan here? I mean you can't just hop on a bus or the subway with a sack of money with a huge ass $ sign on it, dead give away. And as far as I know one armed perps can't drive cars, and the article mentions no driver accomplices. So what was his end game here? To make off on foot?
