Veto This! Armed "Obama Robber" Holding Up Austrian Banks
VIENNA (CBS/AP) Drop the gun, Mr. President!
Austrian authorities are searching for a bank robber who uses an unusual disguise: He wears a Barack Obama mask during holdups.
Police say the man, nicknamed the "Obama Robber" by local media, is wanted for six heists since 2008.
The most recent took place Thursday in the hamlet of Handenberg, where the Obama-masked suspect made off with an undisclosed amount of money after threatening bank employees with a gun.
Police official Markus Mitloehner said Friday that the man is thought to be a local since he speaks the regional dialect - with nary a trace of Obama's more professorial inflections.
