Man Has Girl Present Hold-Up Note at Bank

Michael Lyons apparently had a funny practical joke planned for his daughter's birthday. In the end, no one was laughing ? especially Lyons.

Lyons, 45, was arrested after he told a 13-year-old girl to hand a note to a bank teller, police said. The note said, "Give me all of your money, this is a stick up," according to a police report.

The incident happened Friday when Lyons and a group of girls were celebrating his daughter's birthday. While he was getting money out of an ATM, the girl went into the bank and handed the note to a teller.

The teller sounded the bank's alarm, and police and FBI surrounded the building. Instead of robbers, they found Lyons and the girls.

Lyons was charged with criminal attempt of robbery by intimidation, said Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police spokesman Bucky Burnsed.

"You can't yell 'fire' in a crowded theater, can't joke about a bomb in your luggage at the airport, and you can't write notes to cashier that say 'This is a stick up,'" Burnsed said.

Idiot..:rolleyes:s:

First of all ... why would you be intimidated by a 13-year old girl?

Second of all ... why would this guy even think of doing this without something bad coming out of it?

People are really wack.

No, people are dumb. How do you know the other people in the place weren't loaded down with handguns or whatnot awaiting the response from the cashier to the little girl.

The teller did what she was trained to do. It was obvious the father wasn't thinking :no:

I guess that's true. I personally would have figured it was a practical joke, as most pre-teens in my city are snobby kids who would do that kind of stuff for a laugh, but that's just me :pinch: . And I do agree that her dad was not thinking. I mean, how could he possibly not think something bad would come out of that situation?

because there are 7 year old kids who rape 6 year old girls

because there are 9 year old kids who shoot and kill their parents with shotguns

because a 13 year old held up a bank with her dad's gun a few years ago at the bank i go to a few times a week.

thats why ;)

And it comes down to idiot parents like this guy.

That's the unfortunate price of freedom: people are lax on laws that follow common sense and too restrictive on laws that throw out any forms of common sense.

I'm pretty sure the dad intimidated the girl, not the other way around. The point is, if you coerce/intimidate someone into commiting a crime, it's the same as you actually doing it. It is no different than paying someone to commit a crime for you.

That guy was a rare breed of moron. On the other hand, I'm not quite sure how you end up arresting this guy once you realize that it was what passed for a joke in the mind of a guy with a room temperature IQ.

I mean, I can understand being righteously ****ed off... but you're basically trying to put a guy who didn't do anything in prison. Just have him pay the costs of shipping all those cops and FBI agents out there; I'm sure he's already learned his lesson, but that would really hammer it home. Putting him in a federal penitentiary....? Only in America. :no:

Arresting this guy is just going too far...

It was only a joke! ... this must have happened in the U.S.

Yeah, but there's a thin line between what's constituted as a 'joke' and what's not. After all, post 9-11 it's definitely a stupid mistake to yell out the word B-O-M-B in the airport.

Well in my personal opinion he should be sent to some institution to properly teach him essential parenting skills, but yeah.

What kind of a joke is that anyway? You expect the teller to laugh in front of the girl and tell her 'happy birthday'? :huh:

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
