ST. LOUIS — Even criminals get World Series fever. A man walked into a bank about 20 miles south of Busch Stadium on Friday afternoon, passed a note to a teller demanding cash and walked out with money. But not without also voicing his support for the local Major League Baseball team playing Game 5 of the NLCS.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that a "bearded bandit" showed some community spirit at the First Bank branch in Arnold, Mo. as he robbed it:
He never showed a weapon, but the robber yelled, "Go Cards!" on his way out of the bank, according to the FBI.
That fact probably won't soften up St. Louis-based FBI agents, who are asking for information that will help them catch the baseball-fan bandit.
No one was hurt in the robbery.
