Dude wears fake mustache, robs bank, looks goofy

A man wearing a fake mustache robbed HSBC Bank on Tuesday afternoon, and police are still looking for information.

The approximately 5-foot-6-inch, 170-pound man had short hair on his head and his face—but authorities are pretty sure that ‘stache wasn’t legit. The facial hair must’ve been so blatantly obvious.

In recognition of the robber’s unnatural whiskers, enjoy these photos of other things wearing fake facial hair:
