At least it wasn't breaking and entering.

Well this brings a whole new meaning to lending a helping hand.

A man in Pittsburgh was arrested on Monday this week after robbing a bank… all with the help of a vibrator.

Aaron Stein entered the PNC Bank, threatening staff with a homemade bomb. With wires hanging from his shirt pocket, the thief demanded money from the safe before making a getaway in this car.

When pulled over by police, Stein was found with the stolen cash in a garbage bag and the “bomb” used in the robbery, which was made using a box, black tape, the vibrator, and a mobile phone.

Local police chief Mike Gastgeb told NBC news that Stein immediately confessed, saying:

“As we were getting him out of the vehicle, he started telling us what he did. He said he made a big mistake.”
We’re thinking he was clearly buzzing on the adrenaline of a bank robbery. (Sorry, we had to…)
