His last words as he walked out of the bank were reportedly, “I’m going to make like a tree and leave.”

[Luke Skyfreeper]

Thanks for rooting around and finding that.

I’m glad this didn’t turn violent. Someone could’ve ended up with a broken limb.

[Past Your Eyes]

I bet it won’t take the cops long to root this guy out.

[nuconvert]

Lol

[puroresu]

I always suspected those ents had a bad side.

[Sacajaweau]

The sign said: “Downtown Branch Office”. They thought he wanted money.

[csvset]

What a nut.

We knew they would come to a bad ent...

[i_dont_chat]

Many thanks. Had to be seen to be believed!

[Revolting cat!]

Well, when they catch him, it’ll be tree strikes and you’re out!

[Past Your Eyes]

Why do you suppose they just let him leave like that?

[DManA]

Was the dye green? Tree green? Maybe this guy is an absolute genius.

[Global2010]

and a blue shirt.

He should have wore a brown shirt and pants to make his tree more life like.

Who ever heard of a blue trunk on a tree sheesh.

[savedbygrace]

On his way out of the bank, he yelled, “Now I’m going to leave.”

Did they say what species of tree? Oak? Pine? After all, we dont want them sending in the dogs who will only bark up the wrong tree.

[savedbygrace]

The police will get to the root of this.

[sittnick]

This requites more study . . . we need to find the root cause of this behavior.

I believe the branch in question is off of Elm.

The robber is probably just pining for a better way of life. That is why he needles banks.

Later, a Keebler Elf was found covered in red dye.

*sigh* Get with the theme!

Had to be seen to be believed be leaved!

[Global2010]

Al has reinvented himself from a tree to a holograph.

[nuconvert]

Good!
Now think of good name for him.

[Global2010]

Heh.

[cripplecreek]

This is a stick up.

[null and void]

Why do you suppose they just let him leave like that?

They were hoping he'd Fall?

[Past Your Eyes]

What a sap. The man must have no heart.

[Larry Lucido]

He looked seedy. He made the watchdog bark, and the guard had to use his sap.
