Cowboy thief

A Fort Worth bank robber decided to treat himself to some western-style duds before making his escape economy style on a bus, police and witnesses said.

The man, wearing a baseball cap and polo shirt, entered a downtown bank Tuesday, asking a teller for a deposit slip and returning with a note demanding money and threatening to use a concealed weapon.

After walking out with an undisclosed amount of cash, he stopped at a nearby store, where he bought a western-style shirt and cowboy hat and put them on, police said.

He then boarded a bus heading south, witnesses told police, who were still searching for robber on Friday.
