Darth Vader robs a bank on Long Island

It seems the Empire has fallen on hard times. Presumably to get finishing funds for his latest Death Star, Darth Vader-or a man pretending to be Darth Vader?-was reduced to robbing a bank on Long Island this morning. Impotent Rebel Alliance security forces tell Newsday (paywall) that Vader marched into a Chase bank in Setauket around 11:30 a.m. today. Brandishing a completely unnecessary handgun-as he had the power to choke the oxygen out every teller's throat-the fallen Jedi demanded cash. gothamist

Hey, Death Stars don't pay for themselves.

Clerk was probably trying to hold back from laughing.. I know I would be lol

This is awesome.

No! The Bank of Alderaan is peaceful! We have no weapons! You can't possibly...

Oh dear, I lol'd a fair bit.

:lol: If he is caught, he needs to be tried and imprisoned while wearing his armor. Head_of_games

:lol: Oh please let that happen!

if i was in the bank i probably would have been laughing and not even noticing there was an actual threat.

"We find the defendant guilty"

what do you expect

I think he force choked the guy on the floor.

death stars cost a ----load of money to build and those bastard rebels blew up 2 of them. that's a HUGE financial loss. maybe they didn't have insurance.

If he was really Darth Vader he would use the Force and a Lightsaber instead of a pistol. Some Star Wars fan that guy is. Sheesh.

LMFAO. That is pretty epic honestly. Can you even image what was going on in the head of the clerk he was robbing?Chucckstarr

Props to the robber for being creative..
