This guy is ready to raid the Temple of Dumb.
A brazen bank robbery suspect named Indiana Moen hunted for some stolen treasure in Brooklyn this week — when he tried to rob a Williamsburg bank by passing the teller a note claiming he had a remote-controlled bomb attached to his chest, prosecutors said.
The 23-year-old barged into the Bank of America on Graham Avenue near Varet Street in at around 10:30 a.m. Wednesday and handed a teller the alarming note, according to a criminal complaint.
“This is a robbery. There is a bomb strapped to my chest that is remotely controlled,” Moen allegedly wrote. “I cannot leave until this bag is filled. Big bills only.”
“No silent alarm either,” he warned in the note, according to the complaint. “They’re watching.”
Somehow, Moen got away empty-handed, but the ordeal left the teller in fear of “imminent physical injury,” and “alarmed and annoyed,” the court doc said.
Moen – who wasn’t carrying an explosive device after all – then took off, heading to a building within NYCHA’s Bushwick Houses about a block away on Moore Street near Humboldt Street, prosecutors and sources said.
Officers found him hanging out the fourth floor hallway of the building after apparently trespassing to get inside, according to the complaint.
He was arrested and charged with attempted robbery, menacing, criminal possession of a weapon, attempted petit larceny, harassment and criminal trespass, the DA’s office said.
He was ordered held on $75,000 cash bail or $150,000 bond during his Thursday arraignment, according to prosecutors.
