Guy Robs Bank, Carjacks, Kidnaps, Gets Cuffed
Within a 10-minute span, some poor sap ruined his life.
According to San Francisco Crime (via Bay City News), at 9:05 a.m. this morning, Sacto resident David Bryant, 51, jumped over the counter at Wachovia Bank (at 200 Pine Street) and snatched some cash. He then fled the scene, all while cartoonishly leaving behind a trail of escaped dollar bills, and then tried carjacking two people with a knife. (Chortle.) He succeeded on the third attempt, kidnapping a cabbie at Bush and Sansome Streets, who drove him a few blocks away. Then, "police were able to stop and arrest Bryant on Leavenworth Street at 9:15 a.m."
Bryant was charged with five counts of robbery, two counts of attempted car jacking, one count carjacking, and finally, one count of kidnapping.

Welcome to San Francisco, Wachovia!
The hamburglar gets his theft on.
Wachovia is on California, not 200 Pine. If I were going to regurgitate the Examiner, I would at least get my facts straight!
scary. i went into the wachovia on 1st street yesterday afternoon and they all seemed rather stand offish and freaked out.
i had showerd recently too.
;)
That guy fucked-up his day early
Thanks sfist for finding this. I was searching the news all day yesterday trying to find some mention of this in the news. My coworkers witnessed his cab jacking. This city is crazy.
You're very welcome. Also, SF Crime and BCN are great resources for SF-based criminal frivolity, when local media won't to cover it.
Cab-jacked right under my office window!
Who wants to form a Sansome-at-Bush Citizens Vigilance Committee? A San Francisco tradition! -

I'm surprised he didn't try to "hit for the cycle" with an assault charge and a count of ID theft thrown in there.
