Police on New York's Long Island report they've nabbed the bandit who couldn't spell. Police in Nassau and Suffolk counties say they've linked Bart Thomas to at least 13 bank jobs because of spelling mistakes in his hold-up notes. Investigators say Thomas spelled robbery, r-o-b-r-i and quick, k-w-i-k.
According to police, Thomas' last two robberies were Monday. A customer at a Chase Bank branch noticed the teller becoming upset while Thomas was at her window. The customer followed Thomas out to the parking lot and jotted down his license plate number.
