The life of a Brian: Bank robber doesn't even make it out the door

Boston Police report arresting an alleged would-be bank robber inside the Meetinghouse Bank, 2250 Dorchester Ave. in Lower Mills, yesterday afternoon.

Police say that around 1 p.m., a guy walked into the bank and handed a teller two notes. Without even reading them, police say, she pushed the panic button, then strode across the bank to get her manager:

The teller then returned to the window and read the note which read, "I am Brian need $4,000 I got a gun and a Bomb." Just as the teller finished reading the note, officers arrived on scene and placed the suspect under arrest.

Brian Miller, 54, of Dorchester was charged with attempted bank robbery and stealing by confining or putting in fear.

Innocent, etc.
