STOW, Ohio (Map, News) - A man may have tipped his intentions when he stood in line at an Ohio bank wearing a ski mask before staging a holdup. Police in Stow near Akron say a 24-year-old man was arrested minutes later on Thursday following a brief car chase.

Police say the teller asked the man to take off the mask before being served. At that point the man displayed what turned out to be a toy gun and told the teller to give him all the money.

Police Captain Rick Myers said it's unusual for a masked robber to wait in line at a bank.

The man was being held at the Summit County Jail Friday on charges of aggravated robbery and failure to comply with a police order. He had an afternoon court appearance scheduled.

I guess this is a very polite guy. He wouldn't want to push ahead of the people who got there before him. I wonder if he said "please" when he demanded the money. I also wonder what other people in the bank were thinking--were they even scared?

He may be one of America's dumbest criminals, but I am inclined to like him. He probably won't have an easy time in prison, though.
