Bad day for a bank robbery

The bank robbers had a getaway car, a creative disguise and a fake gun.

Rolling pin

What they didn't count on was the big blue recycling truck, the 5-pound rolling pin, the smoking money and the flat tyre.

Also overlooked: the fact that it's hard for a bicyclist wearing a bright red motorcycle helmet, a blue rain jacket and gardening gloves to, say, blend in.

The two men failed miserably in their midday attempt to rob the Bank of America at 249 S Hyde Park Ave. Thursday.
