What an idiot. Like this guy:
LOWELL, Mass. - A man who held up banks by claiming he had a bomb in a bag was arrested after police found the bag actually contained books, including a phone book that had a mailing label with the manhahaha8217;s full name and address.
George Melendez was arrested Thursday at his home in Lowell and charged with the Jan. 6 robbery of a bank in Dracut. Police said he is also likely to face charges in bank robberies in Lawrence and Salem, N.H.
Melendez would go into each bank and hand the teller a note that said he had a bomb and would set it off if they refused to hand over the money. It should also be noted the notes were written in crayon.
Each time, he would leave with the cash and leave the bag behind as a final threat. After he hit a bank in Lawrence, Mass., police found the hahaha8220;bombhahaha8221; bag filled with tangled wires and some books, one of which was a phone book with his name and address labeled on the cover. My God Watson, I think this is a clue.
Police went to the address listed and placed him under arrest. He complained of chest pains and was taken to a nearby hospital. Doctors told reporters he is in stable but stupid condition.
