NOT the collar bomber. Different bank robber.

That is NOT the collar bomber.

It's a much more recent case where the guy in the picture tried to rob a bank by claiming that he had a bomb in his mouth. The bank security managed to lock him to a fence, then cleared the area.

They called in the bomb squad who then sent over a robot to check his mouth for explosives.
