Earlier last month (May 2013), an unknown man robbed a bank in Charlotte, NC, wearing a distinctive pair of pink house slippers, a long, curly wig, and a black dress marked with white polka dots. It may seem ridiculous at first, but if the disguise was authentic enough, it certainly proved as a good choice.

The robber entered the State Employees Credit Union bank around 4:30 pm, slipped the teller a note demanding money, which he ultimately received from the reluctant employee. As soon as he had the cash in the bag, the man left the scene in a hurry. Witnesses have described the robber as “a black man between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet tall wearing a black dress, a black curly wig, pink bedroom slippers and socks.”
Although the matter is serious, we couldn’t help but to find it a bit funny. We’re not sure what type of slippers did he wear, but believe that a nice pair of pink bunny slippers would have been perfect for the occasion.
As WSOC TV reports, the man was recorded on camera, and will hopefully be captured and delivered to authorities.
