Tim Miller, 52, of North Wales.
A North Wales man who was arrested in May after he allegedly attempted to rob a bank in Montgomery Township, but then changed his mind and made a $20 withdrawal from his debit card instead, has had all but one of the charges against him dismissed.
According to court records, nearly all of the charges against 52-year-old Tim Miller have been dropped, in exchange for a guilty plea to one summary count of disorderly conduct. Records also indicate that Miller will face no penalty for the disorderly conduct guilty plea.
According to the criminal complaint, Montgomery Township Police were dispatched to Citizens Bank—located along the 1200 block of Knapp Road—at 12:20 p.m. on May 16 for a report of an attempted robbery from an aggressive customer that occurred one hour prior. Once on scene, bank employees informed police that a man whom they did not recognize as a customer—later identified as Miller— approached a teller, slammed a white envelope onto the counter and then said “fill it up,” the report states.
Miller then allegedly slammed the envelop on the counter a second time, again saying “fill it up,” before putting his hand in his pocket and pointing it at two employees as if he had a weapon, police said. The report states that Miller then removed his glasses, scrunched his eyes and asked “Do I look like a robber now?”
After a few minutes passed, Miller reportedly said “I’m just kidding. I have a card,” then used his debit card to withdrawal $20 before leaving the building.
The charges that were dropped against Miller include felony counts of robbery and theft by unlawful taking, as well as misdemeanor counts of simple assault and recklessly endangering another person, and a summary charge of harassment.
Though records do not indicate why the charges were dismissed, a source with knowledge of the incident told North Penn Now that Miller’s actions were the result of a bad joke, and that he never intended to commit a robbery.
