Texas bank robber shows 2 IDs while robbing
March 16th, 2011 - 11:35 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattDallas, Mar 16 (THAINDIAN NEWS) A bank robber was dumb enough to oblige when a teller told him to show his ID. He did not only show an ID, in fact he gave the teller two valid IDs that instantly gave him away.
Nathan Wayne Pugh of Sachse was trying to rob a teller of a Dallas branch of Wells Fargo Bank in July. The teller demanded that Nathan should hand over a valid ID for the money to be given to him. He obliged and handed his Wells Fargo debit card along with his state ID. Nathan was arrested just moments later when he tried to flee the bank with the $800 that he was given.
Nathan was arraigned before court and pleaded guilty to robbery charges when he appeared before the court in October. He was sentenced on his own plea to more than eight years behind bars on Tuesday.
This is not the first time that Nathan has had a brush with the law for robbery. He was convicted on two aggravated robbery charges and was on parole when he robbed the bank.
