By: KDKA-TV News Staff

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - The man who attempted to rob the First National Bank on the South Side two summers ago while using a wheelchair as a prop has been sentenced to prison time.

Emanuel Luna was sentenced to nearly four years.

Luna passed a note to the teller that was a bomb threat.

However, he wheeled out of the bank before he was given any cash.

He then ditched the wheelchair and waited for a bus on the side of Carson Street.

During his sentencing, Luna said it "was a really stupid crime."
