Bank robber hands over ID after bank teller claimed she needed a driver’s license to give him more cash

A bank robber who was desperate for cash was fooled into getting himself caught. Police in Ohio said that a quick-thinking bank teller convinced an armed robber to hand over his driver’s license. The man entered a Huntington Bank in Columbus and gave a note to the teller, saying he was armed, demanding money.
The woman gave the suspect a stack of cash, but he was not happy. He wanted more. The suspect asked the bank teller to open the teller cash recycler (TCR) and hand over the money.
The TCR is a machine that authenticates incoming bank notes and securely stores the cash in an internal vault. The bank teller told the suspect that the machine needed a driver’s license to dispense cash. The suspect complied and handed over his own driver’s license. After the man left, the bank teller called the police and handed over the license. Police arrested 51-year-old David Menser. He was charged with aggravated robbery and threats with a deadly weapon.
Columbus Division of Police said that Menser is suspected of robbing 5 banks recently.
