The islander offers: A young man held up a bank teller at gunpoint...noticed a bottle of bourbon

It was a convenience store. He had finished robbing the register and then the story is pretty much as inselpeter related. There was a companion story about the bank robber was trying to rob the BankAmerica. He had filled out the note on a BankAmerica deposit slip but the lines were too long so he went across the street to the Well Fargo Bank and tried to rob them. He handed the note to the Wells Fargo teller. She read it and deduced from the large number of misspellings that he was about a half dozen cans short of a six-pack so she told him she couldn't honor the note because it was written on a BankAmerica deposit slip; he would either have to redo the note on a Wells Fargo deposit slip or take the note he had given her across the street to the BankAmerica and rob them. He took the note back and, on his way out of the BankAmerica with the loot was stopped by the police that the Wells Fargo teller had called up after he left her bank.
