Dennis Hawkins is an unusual man with an unusual plan. Bank robbers wear all kinds of crazy outfits to keep from being noticed and captured after the fact, but none have been quite this unusual. Yes, I know I say that a lot, but Hawkins robbed a Swissville, Pennsylvania, bank over the weekend while wearing a disguise that consisted of a blond woman’s wig, clown pants, and fake breasts worn under a sweater. Oh yeah, he also committed the robbery armed with a BB gun that he shoplifted from a nearby store. Somehow, it only gets weirder from there.
After the robbery, the 48-year-old Hawkins ran to a woman’s car and got in the side door. She pulled her keys, got out of said car, and called the police while Hawkins just sat there, waiting. When cops discovered him, he was still sitting in the car, covered in red from an exploded dye pack inserted in the crook’s ill-gotten gains.
It’s not clear whether Hawkins has an attorney; however, it’s pretty clear that his attorney is going to try to work Hawkins’ unusual behavior into some sort of insanity plea. He’s being held on $230,000 bond. In other news, we’ve already announced the winner for mug shot of the year for 2010
