Gregory Holloway, a longtime resident of Covington, Kentucky, had steady employment until he became addicted to crack cocaine a few months ago. The father of two then turned to bank heists to support his drug habit. In early July, he stole an estimated $1,670 from a Covington branch of PNC Bank, and a few days later took $1,945 from a branch of Huntington Bank, also in Covington.

Shortly after 1 p.m. on the afternoon of July 26, he tried to rob a PNC Bank branch in Florence, but met his match when a feisty female teller refused to cooperate. The unidentified teller had been robbed before, and was determined not to let it happen again.

When Holloway entered the bank and demanded that the teller "put the money on the counter," he was not holding a gun or other weapon. The teller firmly told him, "No!" He then threatened, "Don't make me pull a gun," but she still made clear that she had no intention of handing over any money.
