A robber dressed up as a tree :-?

Leaf it to New Hampshire, where a bank branch was held up by a man disguised as a tree.

Just as the Citizen Bank branch opened Saturday morning, a man walked in with leafy boughs duct-taped to his head and torso, and robbed the place.

"He really went out on a limb," police Sgt. Ernie Goodno said Sunday.

Police said the leafy man didn't saying anything about having a weapon, just demanded cash, and was given an undisclosed amount.

Although the branches and leaves obscured much of the man's face, someone who saw images from the bank's security camera recognized the robber and called police.

Officers said James Coldwell, 49, was arrested early Sunday at his Manchester home and charged with robbery. Arraignment was not expected until Monday.

I can't help but LMFAO at this story. :-D

If he was a little more sophisticated, he could've dressed up like a leafy sea dragon.

Haha yeah, I'm actually from the area so I saw this on the news the other day. Good disguise buddy :-t

. Aparently he was hanging out in a park by a lake and all of a sudden decided to rob a bank so he grabbed whatever he could to disguise himself. Obviously, he didn't do that great of a job. He didn't have a weapon or anything, he must have something going on upstairs :-?
