You Boys Go Out and Play
Two men hit the Bank of America in Waterbury, Conn., announcing a robbery. But when things didn’t go quickly enough, the two ran off empty-handed. “We were both mad we didn’t get any money,” John Small, 46, told police after he and his brother, Delome, were arrested for the crime. Why were they in such a rush? “Delome has an ankle bracelet and he can’t really leave the house.” Delome, 37, is under home confinement since he’s on probation. The brothers chose the Bank of America because it was the closest bank to Delome’s apartment, which he shares with his mother, and the ankle bracelet would notify his probation officer if he was too far away for too long.
