Leprechaun bank robbers die in Tennessee shoot-out

Updated - 18/3/2010 - bbc.co.uk.

Two suspected bank robbers, one of them wearing a St Patrick’s Day costume, have been killed in a shoot-out with police in Tennessee.

First State Bank in the Nashville suburb of Gallatin was held up on Wednesday by a man dressed as a leprechaun, police said.

The man left the bank with an undisclosed amount of money.

Both suspects were shot dead when they ditched their vehicle and ran into a field, pursued by police officers.

The costumed suspect had initially walked into a Fifth Third Bank nearby at lunchtime but left again because it was too crowded, witness Bradley Webb told Tennessee’s News Channel 5.

’Large-calibre gun’

Sharon Riehemann, manager of the Fifth Third Bank, said the costumed man had been wearing a green top hat, vest and shorts and a fake brown beard and wig.
