According to a NY Times article from this Saturday, on Jan. 16th a 71year old financial advisor robbed a bank in New York wearing a pair of groucho glasses. There is a picture of the actual glasses here.

“This wasn’t exactly an ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ kind of crime,” Lt. Eric Johansen of the Peekskill Police Department said after Mr. Solomon was charged with brandishing a knife and making off with $5,900 in cash from a teller’s drawer at a Trustco Bank branch shortly after it opened on Jan. 16. He was arrested at his 23rd-floor Rockefeller Center office on Wednesday and charged with first-degree robbery and third-degree grand larceny.”
