Leafy bank robber exposed

A US man disguised himself as a tree to rob a bank in New Hampshire.

Just as the Citizen Bank branch opened in Manchester on Saturday morning, the man walked in with leafy boughs duct-taped to his head and torso, and robbed the place. “He really went out on a limb,” said police Sgt Ernie Goodno.

Police said the man did not say anything about having a weapon, just demanded cash and was given an undisclosed amount.
