Bank robber pillow case disguise had no eye holes
Matthew Davies had to take the cover off during an armed bank raid in Fife as he could not see.
A bank robber put a pillow case over his head to hide his identity - then had to take it off as he could not see.
Matthew Davies failed to create eye holes in the cover ahead of the armed raid at a bank in Dunfermline, Fife last September.
The 47-year-old, who threatened staff with a meat cleaver, left the branch with nearly £2,000 but was later arrested.
...
A hearing at the High Court in Glasgow heard how Davies entered the Bank of Scotland branch and pulled the meat cleaver from the pillow case before putting the bedding item on to cover his face.
But the failure to create eye holes meant he had to take it off.
...
The court heard how a witness then followed Davies from the branch to his Dunfermline home.
Police later found the cash and a pillow case "consistent with what he put over his head" at his house.
