The Empire must have been hit hard by the economy.

Suffolk County police say they are searching for a man who robbed a Chase bank early Thursday morning dressed as Darth Vader.

Police say the man used a gun to demand cash from the bank's teller before exiting through the parking lot and riding away on a motorbike. It's currently unclear how much the Sith Lord made away with.

They are looking for a man described as around 6-feet tall.

I wonder if the force will be arrested?

who says it's a nerd? a darth vader custom is perfect to wear in order to rob some place or person. Only problem is that you stand out.

Indeed, and the motorcycle does not help as much since you can see the darth vader driver very easily.

Indeed, and I still think they have yet to get this guy.

If he rented or bought the Darth Vader costume recently, he might be caught if they look over security tapes or ask the cashier at the costume store.

But, I got a feeling he made the costume himself, or bought it a long time a go.

or got it online. I don't see a darth vader custom being made by some random person.
