Man wearing wig and clown pants arrested after bank robbery

Authorities say a man robbed a bank wearing a woman's blond wig, fake breasts under a sweater and clown pants.
 
Swissvale police say 48-year-old Dennis Hawkins was sitting in a parked car covered in red dye from an exploding packet in a bag of money when he was arrested Saturday.
 
Police Chief Greg Geppert says Hawkins robbed the bank at gunpoint, using a toy BB gun he had shoplifted from a store.
 
Geppert says Hawkins then entered a woman's car. She got out, took her keys and alerted police.

Hawkins was found sitting in the car.
 
He is being held on $230,000 bail. It's not clear whether he has an attorney.
