GALLATIN, Tenn. (AP) - Police say two bank robbery suspects, including one dressed in a green leprechaun costume, have been shot dead after a St. Patrick's Day chase and shootout with police in Tennessee.

Sgt. Bill Storment said First State Bank in the Nashville suburb of Gallatin was held up by a costumed man at 12:28 p.m. Wednesday, and the suspects fired at police during a car chase.

A news release said the two ran into a field and died when they exchanged fire with officers.

If I were a bank robber, the last thing I’d wear is a silly costume that would make it easier for the cops to spot me while trying to get away.
