Robber hits bank 2nd time as TV reporter is there live

As reporter Adam Sallet neared the end of a live update on a robbery at the bank, it happened again.

"That's the robber," an employee ran to Sallet and said. "That's him right there."

The KIMT reporter turned back to the camera telling his audience, "this is live TV, folks. I have to go. I have to call 911." The station reports the robber hit the bank around 11am before taking off in an SUV. When he tried to go back to the well on Tuesday, his luck ran out.

"We had an officer very nearby investigating an accident," Police Capt. John Sherwin explained to The Post-Bulletin. "Once he got the call, he was able to get there very quickly."

Cops say the familiar bad guy was taken into custody wearing a green sweatshirt with "Get Lucky, and a four-leaf clover" on the front. “Lucky,” is now in jail.
