Times are tough, even for Lord Vader.

23rd July 2010, The Empire Strikes Bank:
Armed robber dressed as Darth Vader demands cash in daring raid

When a six-foot man strode into a Long Island bank yesterday
dressed as sci-fi super villain Darth Vader, customers and staff
thought it was a joke. But they soon realized how serious the man
was when he produced a handgun and demanded cash. Police in
New York are now trying to trace the phantom menace, who stuffed
cash into a bag and disappeared.

The man entered the Chase Bank in East Setauket around 11:30am,
wearing the distinctive Darth Vader mask, a long black cloak and -
slightly out of character - camouflage combat trousers. One customer
thought the outfit was so funny that he started joking with the dark
lord as he tried to pull off his heist.

Police have released CCTV images of the man stuffing the money into
a drawstring bag featuring a New York Yankees logo. As he left the
robber punched another customer who tried to stop him. The bank
was still checking its drawers last night to figure out how large his
take was, Detective Lamb said.

It was the second recent off-the-wall bank robbery. On Wednesday,
the NYPD arrested a man dubbed the 'Bouquet Bandit', who acquired
his unusual nickname after bringing flowers and potted plants into the
banks he robbed.

Iguess his light saber was sitting on the battery charger.

Definately a class act, the getaway in particular was novel.
Stuffed the money into a bag and disappeared. Was he beamed up or slipped into a parallel universe or what?
Only the Shadow knows, where is Lamont Cranston when you need him?
Or even Philbert Desenex, How many of you remember what super hero Philbert Desenex turned into? Careful, if you answer correctly you either reveal how ancient you are or how much time you waste googling.
