TAXI TO JAIL: BANK ROBBER HIRES GETAWAY CAB

WHERE YA GOIN'?
A CRAZY robber held up a bank and used a taxi as a getaway car according to Pittsburgh cops.
Arriving in the PNC branch in the cab he allegedly told the driver to wait outside while he went insider and then give him a ride when he came out.
What he didn't tell him was that he was going to hold it up.
Seemingly without a care in The World he casually handed a note to the teller, saying he had a gun and wanted money, which the teller duly handed over.
After that he got back in the cab and told the driver, who was
completely unaware as to what had just happened to go.  
What the thief hadn't bargained on was the teller including a red dye pack with the undisclosed amount of cash, which exploded in the cab a few blocks away from the bank.
So he told the driver to stop, got out with some of the money and boarded a bus, which is where cops caught up with him, tasering him and taking him into custody. 
The robbery suspect has not been identified yet, although he'll probably have more than a red face when his identity is revealed.
