High-School Student Charged With Robbing Banks as Cowboy, Ghost
A high school junior robbed a bank in a cowboy outfit, tipping his hat and yelling “Giddyup!” as he left with a backpack of money, police said.
Dustin Marshall, 17, was charged in the Oct. 24 holdup and another bank robbery six days later in which he allegedly wore a Halloween ghost mask.
He wore a full-length black duster coat, brown boots and a bandanna mask in the cowboy holdup, threatening the tellers with a “cowboy-type pistol,” police said.
