A robber claiming to be an Iraq war veteran absconded with $3,000 after sliding a very poorly-written note to a teller at a Chase bank in Chelsea last Thursday. Teller Talla Talla said the crook showed him a gun, and gave him a note which read, "Unemploy IRAQ war vet I have a gun in my Pocket I want 2 stack $100 Bills No Die Pack or Dummie Pack Please I Don't want hurt any one one co worker." Who else read "I want 2 stack $100 bills" as just his fetish for piling dollars on top of each other?

Talla says the gunman told him to hurry and began banging his gun on the counter, and grabbed the $3,000 Talla had counted out before running out. The robber is still on the lam; he is described as in his 40s, about 200 pounds and having a bandage over his left eye. And next time, Talla, just laugh at him and he'll go away.
