Bank robbery flop

A spineless man tried to rob a Third Avenue bank on Dec. 2 — but fled when the teller called the manager, according to police.

Officers said the bandit walked into the branch between 95th and 96th Streets in Bay Ridge at 1:15 pm and passed the teller a note that read, “This is a robbery. I have a gun. Pull [sic] all money in an envelope. No dye packs.
