A thief in North Carolina walked into a bank with a gun and a Darth Vader costume and left with a ton of stolen cash.
The robbery occurred Monday at the State Employees Credit Union in Pineville, N.C. The person, wearing an all-black costume with a Darth Vader mask, pointed a gun at employees, reports ABC News.
The masked robber apparently forgot his TIE fighter and fled in a Chevy Suburban SUV with an undisclosed amount of cash. He is still at large.
Local news WCNC obtained footage of the robbery.
WATCH:
The desperate turn to crime could be fueled by Darth Vader’s failed prime minister bid in Ukraine last year.
