Man robs bank to pay for boob job
It’s Dog Day Afternoon – the Austrian version. A man has been jailed after robbing a bank to pay for a breast operation for his transvestite lover.
It’s reported that car mechanic Robert Steinwirt, 29, was caught just hours after he handed over the 7,000 pounds he had robbed from the bank in Grinzens, Austria, to a plastic surgeon who he hoped would perform the op on his transvestite lover.
The surgeon reportedly called police because he was suspicious that the mechanic wanted to pay him so much money in cash up front for the operation.
Steinwert has been sentenced to six years in prison.
In the 1975 film Dog Day Afternoon, Al Pacino plays a man who robs a bank to finance his lover’s gender reassignment surgery. The movie was based on a real-life robbery, committed by John Wojtowicz in Brooklyn in 1972.
