My guess is that he inhaled enough of the mist from the paint that he , in effect, painted the inside of his lungs as well.

Another possibility is that he had an allergic reaction of some kind. Irritants can cause swelling and edema.

Darwin Award for sure.

Self-inflicted execution for robbery. He was a bit hard on himself.

Seriesly, asthma maybe?

INT. CAR. NIGHT

Anthony, Dignan, and Bob are sitting in Bob’s car, parked in the dark. Bob’s at the wheel. Anthony and Dignan are in the back. Anthony has on a dark blue ski cap. Dignan’s wearing a baseball cap with the brim pulled down low. He puts a piece of adhesive tape across his nose and hands the roll to Anthony.

BOB: What are you doing?

DIGNAN: I’m putting a piece of tape on my nose.

Anthony tapes his nose. They stare out the windshield. The alarm on Dignan’s digital watch goes off.

DIGNAN: (immediately, dead serious) Let’s get lucky.
...

EXT. HAMBURGER PLACE. NIGHT

A picnic table in front of a hamburger place. Dignan is standing up with his drink in his hand.

BOB: Was Dignan screaming like, Get me a bag!

DIGNAN: No. I was calm.

ANTHONY: What about what that guy said?

DIGNAN: Oh, shXX. That was scary. In the middle of the robbery. The manager looks at me. Right in the eye. And
goes, I’m going to remember you.

BOB: Are you serious?

ANTHONY: Yeah. He said that.

DIGNAN: I swear to God. In a very quiet voice.

ANTHONY: Like he meant it.

DIGNAN: Yeah.

ANTHONY: Like he would find Dignan. One day.

DIGNAN: Like I’m going to hunt you down and
kill you.

Dignan stands there a minute and lets this sink in. Then he
finally sits down and they all eat their burgers.

BOB: You really think he’ll remember you?

DIGNAN: (smiles) No. All he’ll remember is a guy with a piece of tape on his nose.

They laugh smugly.

deputies say a man spray-painted his face in order to disguise himself during a robbery, but died after he had trouble breathing after the robbery.

I don't care who you are, that's just damn funny.

Oh goodness, I know he died and it’s sad, but this is hilarious; call ‘World’s Dumbest Criminals’.
