1997's Nominees For The Barney Fife Award

In Houston, a robbery at Greater Houston FCU was thwarted when federal and local law enforcement agencies were attending a training session in the same building as the credit union. At Ft. Belvoir FCU, a man who allegedly robbed the credit union returned a month later to wire the money to a Texas bank. The man went to the same teller he had robbed. In California, a suspect in a robbery was identified because he was wearing a business suit - and pink slippers.
