As if 47-year-old Landscaper Andrew Green didn?EUR??,,????'???t already have enough to do when he stood through two bank robberies in the same summer ?EUR??,,????'??? at the same bank. So on July 27, when the teller of the Jensen Beach, Fla. bank announced that she had been robbed by a man who had just walked out the door, Green sped out the building and tackled him 200 yards down the street. ?EUR??,,????'??It felt great,?EUR??,,????'?? said Green, who had witnessed the same bank being robbed on June 2. ?EUR??,,????'??All my frustrations just went out of my body.?EUR??,,????'?? Martin County sheriff?EUR??,,????'???s deputies found Thomas Shelton Poisal, 45, of Greenacres, locked in Green?EUR??,,????'???s bear hug upon their arrival. The police sheriff?EUR??,,????'???s office does not encourage civilians tackling people that could be armed and dangerous, but fortunately, this situation was successful, according to Sgt. John Cummings. Green said that had he not witnessed the bank robber a couple months earlier, he most likely would not have reacted the same. However, Green had to remain in the bank when it was locked down after the June 2 robbery. ?EUR??,,????'??This time, I didn?EUR??,,????'???t want to get locked in,?EUR??,,????'?? he said. Poisal, who was unarmed, was held with a $40,000 bail at the Martin County jail. Source:Tthe Palm Beach Post
