Colorado man robbed bank, immediately threw cash in air yelling 'Merry Christmas'

Bearded man robs bank, gifts money, then yells 'Merry Christmas'

"An eyewitness told KKTV that the man, identified by police as 65-year-old David Oliver, left the bank, threw money into the air, shouted the holiday wishes, then went to a nearby Starbucks where he sat down and waited to be arrested."

"Police said Oliver was arrested without conflict and no weapon was found on his person, though the suspect had reportedly claimed to have a weapon while robbing the nearby Academy Bank."

What makes this even funnier is the fact that the guy has a white beard. Looks like Santa Claus is trying to bring Christmas cheer another, less legal way.

Unfortunately he was probably an old person with medical issues/homelessness trying to get three hots and a cot as well as medical care. Though it is an entertaining story even if you would be committing a crime to take the cash.

Santa Claus+Robin Hood=?

More like a desperate guy trying to get a roof over his head.

Huh, Colorado Santa is odd. Florida Santa just has misconceptions about the meaning of the phrase ”dreaming of a white Christmas“.

I don't think he's an evil man, or a bad one, just a very desperate one.

I hope he finds the help he needs.
