Wells asked the teller when the bank would open the vault. The teller said at 3 p.m.
Wells said he would be back for the rest of the money later.


Now that's another weird part of the story. Come back to rob it later?

Maybe he wanted to get back so the bomb detonation time could be reset. Rob the rest of the money later.

Hard to say what type of thinking process people have when they have a bomb strap to the neck.

BIZARRRE!!!

That detail makes it sound even more likely that he was not doing this willingly. It sounds like a spur of the moment comment from someone afraid that when he gave his "handler" less than the amount requested, he'd be in big trouble, and forced to go back -- either to that bank or a different one -- to get the rest. Nobody who's robbing a bank on their own steam is going to even THINK about going back to the same bank for more in the foreseeable future -- it's get the money and run.

OK. This does it for me. The guy was a nut. Did it all himself or his buddy was in on it too. Give me more infor to change my mind.

He's gt a bomb around his neck and he's saying "I didn't do it".

I'd be screaming and begging and shouting "get this off of me". Loud and seriously emotional. I just didn't get this on the video.

Nothing from the witness about eratic behavior either. I ain't gonna stand in line with a bomb set to go off around my neck.

But, then again, I'm stopping the first chance I get and calling the cops anyway. I'd know by then that I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't. I'm NOT going into that bank and wait in line.

Yeah, "weird" is an understatement...And how many innocent victims wait patiently in line for their turn while a time bomb is ticking around their neck?
