Stupid Criminal Tried to Pass $1 Million Bill

Change for a million?

That’s what a man was seeking Saturday when he handed a $1 million bill to a cashier at a Giant Eagle supermarket on Pittsburgh’s North Side.

But when the employee refused and a manager confiscated the bogus bill, Samuel Porter flew into a rage, police said.

Porter slammed an electronic funds-transfer machine into the counter and reached for a scanner gun, police said.

Police arrested Porter, 66, who was not carrying identification and refused to give his name to authorities. He is being held in the Allegheny County Jail.
