Who Was That Masked Man? Police Know. May 21, 2009 1:28 PM | permalink

Steven Colantonio, pictured at left, robbed a bank in New Hampshire yesterday, police say, wearing a rather lame disguise on his face: white surgical tape.

After the crime, tellers at St. Mary’s Bank contacted police and gave them security video of the incident. Detectives noticed that the thief looked just like Colantonio, whom they recognized from previous arrests.

Colantonio has been charged with felony robbery. While police have yet to release footage of the incident, we have created, below, a simulation of what Colantonio's mask might have looked like.

Where did he allegedly come up with this idea?  Here's one good guess, from The Smoking Gun Presents: World's Dumbest.

If that dude kept wrapping himself with that kind of tape, he would've been a Mummy.

(Hint to those reading, if you have any kids and if they wanna be Mummies for Halloween, using white surgical tape is not a great idea)

Is he related to the guy who used the palm branch as a disguise? What morons!!!

lmao, thanks for the "artist's depiction"....was having a difficult time imagining how it might look.

btw, was watching worlds dumbest partiers on Tru last night and some dumbass put some packing tape on his head and then had some guy rip it off.....took off a whole strip of skin from this dude's dome....hilarious

you guys have no idea who this man is. he has suffered from an illness most of his life and for anyone to pass judgement is a hipicrit! grow up and look at how many people in society go un treated. 143

This dude is the King/Queen of Criminals that are Idiots and just plain dumb.
Surely, he was on some type of psych drug.
Who needs a disguise anyways as you can go in to a WalMart with baggy clothes and fill them up with goodies as you walk about the store. I have witnessed this many times.
