Man Dressed As Darth Vader Robs North Carolina Bank

The police force was not strong – he got away.

An armed man dressed as Darth Vader robbed a bank in Charlotte, North Carolina on Monday, police said.

The Darth Vader-masked suspect entered the Pineville State Employees Credit Union with a long gun and demanded money from the bank teller, according to the Pineville police.

No one was injured during the armed robbery.

The suspect was described by officials as "a black male wearing all dark clothing, to include a Darth Vader style costume mask."

The police and the FBI's Charlotte office are looking for the Sith Lord-imposter who fled in a 4-door gray Chevy Suburban.
