'Tree' leaves bank branch with cash, man charged
Just as the Citizen Bank branch opened Saturday morning, a man walked in
disguised as a tree, with leafy boughs duct-taped to his head and torso and
robbed the place.
Officers said James Coldwell, 49, was arrested early Sunday at his
Manchester, N.H., home and charged with robbery. “He really went out on a limb,” police Sgt. Ernie Goodno said Sunday.
