About a day after he left prison, 69-year-old John Stolarz attempted to hold up one of the busiest banks in Manhattan, before feeling from officers who eventually shot and killed him near a transit station, reports the New York Daily News.
Using a 10-inch steak knife, Stolarz walked into the Chase branch near Madison Square Garden shortly after noon on Thursday, and demanded "fifties and hundreds." Stolarz left, when a teller told him the bank didn't have the cash.
