Wheelchair Bank Robbery

Wheelchair-bound crook arrested in Queens TD bank robbery - What goes around comes around.

Cops say they’ve caught up with the wheelchair bandit who knocked over a Queens bank Monday — and it’s the same crook who wheeled away from a similar bank heist in June.

Kelvin Dennison, 23, of Astoria, dodged prison time in the summer caper by entering a yearlong inpatient mental health program in September. He’d have gotten two years of probation upon completion. Washing out would mean one to three years in prison.

Dennison washed out when he didn’t follow the program’s rules and was discharged on Dec. 29, prosecutors said.

On Monday he compounded his troubles, rolling into the TD Bank on Queens Blvd. by 41st St. in Sunnyside, prosecutors said.

He handed a teller a note that read, “Give me $20,000. I have a bomb. I will shoot,” then got an undisclosed sum of cash.

On June 29, he handed a similar note — “Give me all you have. I have a gun” — to a teller at the Santander Bank on Broadway in Astoria, according to authorities.

Dennison was paralyzed as a teen in a shooting at the Astoria Houses.

“The defendant did not allow his disability to hinder him from breaking the law or frightening a bank employee by claiming that he was armed with a bomb and a firearm,” said Queens District Attorney Richard Brown.

He was awaiting arraignment in Queens Criminal Court.
