WEIRD NEWS: Back to Work
A Florida bank robber was just paroled after serving an eight-year prison sentence, and just one day after his release, he went right back to work and is now on the run.
59-year-old Timothy Jones was convicted of armed bank robbery and carjacking in 2013 and was released from jail last Wednesday. The very next day he walked into a bank and threatened to shoot a teller if he wasn't given $150,000. Cops say he then left the bank with an undisclosed amount of money and fled in a stolen car. They believe he may have since ditched the vehicle and is now traveling by bus. They're asking for the public's help in finding him. (Daily Boulder)

- Great job, parole board.
- Old habits die hard.
- A convicted bank robber and carjacker went and robbed another bank and stole a car? No way.
