Drunk Man Takes Cab To Commit Bank Robbery
In which state did a drunken man take a cab to bank, tell tellers he had C4 explosives and demand $100,000?
Come on, you KNOW it was in Florida.
Stanley Geddie arrived by taxicab and was drunk during an attempted heist of a Tallahassee bank Wednesday afternoon, police say.
The 46-year-old was arrested on charges of robbery, petty theft and resisting an officer after demanding $100,000 from a bank manager at the Capital City Bank on Capital Circle Northwest.
Geddie told the manager he had a .357 handgun, was carrying C4 plastic explosives and “would blow this place up,” court records show.
Police arrived at the bank to find the cab driver, who advised them Geddie was drunk and had not paid his $25.50 fare. The driver told police Geddie said, “I will take care of you when I come out.”
When police made contact with Geddie sitting in the manager’s office, he appeared “very intoxicated and spaced out,” according to court records.
Geddie did not follow officers’ commands and was tased during the incident.
A search revealed Geddie did not have a firearm or explosives.
While being treated for Taser wounds at Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare, Geddie indicated he had on two pairs of pants so he could remove one after the robbery to appear not to be the suspect.
Oh Florida, you never cease to amaze us.
