Indiana Moen, a 23-year-old, attempted to rob a Bank of America in Brooklyn by presenting a note to the teller that falsely claimed he had a bomb attached to himself, demanding large bills. After the alarming episode, Moen left the bank empty-handed, which left the teller fearful and distressed. Subsequently, he was arrested in a nearby building after officers tracked him down, and he faced multiple charges including attempted robbery and menacing, with bail set at $75,000 cash or $150,000 bond.
"This is a robbery. There is a bomb strapped to my chest that is remotely controlled. I cannot leave until this bag is filled. Big bills only."
Despite his threats, Moen was not carrying any explosive device, alarming the bank teller who felt "imminent physical injury," according to court documents.
Moen, after claiming he had a bomb, bizarrely took off without any money, leading to his capture in a nearby housing project.
He was ordered held on $75,000 cash bail or $150,000 bond during his Thursday arraignment.
