NEW YORK -- Long Island may be far from the Death Star, but that didn't stop Darth Vader from paying a less-than-friendly visit to a bank in East Setauket, New York.

Or at least he looked like Darth Vader, except for the camouflage pants.

The costumed man, with a mask and cape, entered a Chase bank Thursday morning and demanded cash.  Although he didn't have a lightsaber, his gun was more than enough to persuade the teller to hand over the money.

The caped criminal then fled east through the bank's parking lot.

Suffolk County police said they are searching for the man, described as around 6 feet tall.

Look at Han Solo on the floor. Obviously, he's no match for Darth Vader.

Pather, yeah, and their 401k plan tanked with the economy so Vader decided to pad his nest egg by other means.

Police say they are looking for a man. He is described as being 7' tall and asthmatic. haha Robbery isn't cool, but I'll admit I laughed pretty hard when I heard it was Vader.

Good thing Darth Vader is already known as a bad guy! Now if it had been Luke Skywalker, THEN we would have to worry!
