Well if you stole a pen from a bank, is it still considered a bank robbery. I very highly doubt it. First of all, we probably have all picked up things without noticing it, and returned it when we realize we have it. I highly doubt if someone has taken money will bring it back in good faith. I don't think that a person who has taken a pen, is convicted of a robbery.

These pens are usually on a chain so i think u went in with a pair of pliers or cutters, shouted to everyone to get down, cut the chain and ran with the pen.
When you got out the door did the dye cover the pen like it does the money ?
If not than i think u might be safe.

No. Robbery is taking by force or the threat of force. Taking a pen is petty larceny.

NO!!! I don't know which country you are in but I think the maximum charge you could get would be a regulatory offence of stealing, maximum of a $300 fine however I don't even think the police would waste their time even humoring the bank with such a ridiculous complaint!!!

If you want to split hairs, the answer is yes, because you robbed from a bank.

If you are going to go down, go down big. Not worth risking 25 years for a pen. But for a few million?
