Chesapeake teller wouldn't take robber's note

CHESAPEAKE — Maybe the would-be robber missed the instructional video on how to hold up a bank.
It was nearing 3 p.m. Monday when a man walked into the BB&T at 1809 Greenbrier Parkway and handed a teller a note saying that he was robbing the bank.
To his surprise, the teller handed the piece of paper back.
“The woman looked at the note and politely slid it back to him and said, 'I can’t accept this,’ ” said police spokesman Tommy Kullman.
The man slid the note back again.
“This time, she picked it up, balled it up and threw it back at him,’’ Kullman said.
The man picked up the note and walked out of the bank and down Greenbrier Parkway.
Bank employees called police.
While the teller’s actions foiled the robber’s plan, Kullman said police don’t recommend such a response.
“We don’t want anyone to get hurt,’’ he said.
The man is described as black, about 5 feet 7 inches tall and about 180 pounds. He was wearing a black jacket and black pants.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to call Chesapeake Crime Line at (888) LOCK-U-UP.
