Well it's always good to have a backup plan

In South Carolina, this dude walked into a bank to cash a $173 personal check. He gave it to the teller, as folks cashing checks are wont to do, but she had to inform him that there wasn't enough money in the account to cover the check. He pleaded with the teller, saying he needed the money or someone was going to kill him.

When the teller still kindly refused, he went to Plan B, and wrote a note declaring that he was robbing the bank. At this point, she gave him some cash and he took off.

The best part of the article is the end, which states: "Investigators say they have a suspect, but have not made an arrest." They have a suspect? You think? Could it be, oh I dunno, the guy who's name was on the personal check?
