WEST MELBOURNE, Fla. - A man from Melbourne was arrested after he unsuccessfully robbed a Wendy's and a bank, according to police.
Daniel Jeconiah Gibbs was nabbed Tuesday for the double attempted robbery on August 5. He was taken into custody by the Brevard County Sheriff's Office, but the Palm Bay Police Department is also expected to bring more charges toward Gibbs.
The alleged robbery attempts happened August 5. Gibbs walked into a Wendy's at 135 Palm Bay Road and approached an employee behind the order counter, police said.
Gibbs displayed what employees believed to be a gun in his waistband and demanded cash from the register, according to police. The employee became frozen with fear and didn't comply with Gibbs' demands. That's when another employee – who didn't know what was happening – approached the counter.
Gibbs turned around and walked out of the restaurant, police said. The first employee then collapsed in the second employee's arms.
Hours later, Gibbs made his way to a bank in Palm Bay and allegedly committed a second attempted robbery. Police did not specify which bank Gibbs went to.
Gibbs was seen on surveillance footage wearing a head covering and a medical mask, but police were able to ID him and give his information to other law enforcement agencies in the area.
The Brevard County Sheriff's Office located Gibbs on Tuesday and took him into custody. When he was arrested, he allegedly had a large sheathed knife, what deputies believe was in Gibbs' waistband at the time of the robbery.
"Given the victim’s fear at the time of the robbery, the knife handle could have easily been mistaken for a firearm," police said.
Gibbs is being held at the Brevard County Jail on $20,000 bond.
“unsuccessfully robbed”? If he was unsuccessful, then he didn’t rob it.
Jeconiah...
Let me guess.
One guy in the past robbed the bank but left his wallet with driver’s license photo ID on the teller’s counter.
RE: Jeconiah...
Let me guess.

My guess is Inuit or other speakers of dialects of Inuktitut.
Some live in mainland US, others in Alaska.
Do I win anything for guessing right?
RE: wearing a head covering and a medical mask
Once the medical mask would have made him a hero obedient to Fauci. Now just another bank robber.
Hard to imagine that nice looking fellow would ever try to rob anyone …
He got himself successfully arrested though. Gotta count that one. :)
Photo.....👀👀
He approached Adam Schiff and said “Stop staring at me” 👀”You first. You stop staring at me, punk.” 👀”Don’t look at me. Stop it.”👀👀
Finally they started shoving and the grappling on the floor, kicking and giving and getting kidney punches and groin twists.

Hope he ate the Wendy’s food before putting his hands on all that dirty money. Might have made him sick.
