Siegfried K. Robs Former German Bank With Toy Gun

by | 2nd, December 2011

IS Siegfried K., the man who tried and failed to rob a bank in Walchum, Germany, the world’s most stupid bank robber? He used a toy gun. And there was no bank. The actual branch moved years before the caper in May 2011. All that were left were cash machines in the wall.

And because Siegfried hadn’t taken along a toy sledgehammer, he used the toy gun to force a woman to withdraw 400 euros.

He then fled in a stolen car. When police found it, the toy gun was stuffed between the seats and his fingerprints were all over it.

The man was jailed for 7 years.

Although there is a sneaking suspicion that this is what he wanted…
