Man attempts to rob a bank that is still under construction

KENNESAW, Ga. - There is little money to be gained from attempting to rob a bank that is still under construction, police say a Marietta man learned on Wednesday.



Michael Donald Marshall, 39, entered the Bank of America and demanded $500 from the tellers while threatening that he had a gun, according to the Kennesaw Police Department.


The employees then told him the bank wasn't open for business and there was no money. Kennesaw Police arrived as Marshall exited the building empty-handed, officers said.


The suspect is charged with armed robbery. During their investigation, police also learned that Marshall had an outstanding warrant for shoplifting in Cobb, Kennesaw Police spokesman officer Scott Luther said.

1. lol

even under the best of circumstances, bank robbery is the STUPIDEST crime. You get almost nothing from it, and you WILL get caught.

3. More good publicity for Georgia!

Here in my town, we actually had an CPA rob a bank (after he had embezzled a bunch of money from his clients). Needless to say, his ass is in prison now. What a fool.

Bush could learn from this.
