Donald Patrick Malone was charged on June 1 with attempted robbery, two counts of burglary of a business and two counts of robbery, according to Clark County court records.

Police said a man tried robbing a Wells Fargo bank on May 29 by handing one of its tellers an iPad which had a prewritten note on it saying, “Give me large bills only, don’t try anything and don’t give any trackers or dye packs,” according to a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police arrest report obtained by KLAS and the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

The bank robber ran off once the teller activated a silent alarm as a co-worker approached her station, the arrest report said, according to KLAS.
