Australian held for 'robbing' bank for his flight home

The 23-year-old Ice cream shop assistant, Zachary Adrian Cronin, was presented to the press with the cash, a mask, a fake gun and sunglasses. He was then made to re-enact the crime at six locations.
Cronin claimed that he has been in Thailand for a month and had spent all the Bt100,000 he had, so he planned to rob the bank so he could buy a ticket home. Apparently he had been scouting the bank two days before the robbery.
