January 29, 2007 -- Clenzo Thompson really should get a new career.
The bird-brained bandit was busted for sticking up the same Brooklyn bank twice in three days -
and having a dye pack explode in his face both times, cops said. And this is three years after he robbed another bank but dropped his state ID card while pocketing the cash, sources said. On Jan. 12, Thompson, 45, slipped a holdup note to a teller in Commerce Bank's Park Slope branch, on Fifth Avenue near Garfield Place, cops said. He got back $2,340 stacked to conceal the soon-to-explode dye pack.
Yet, just two days later, Thompson allegedly took a livery cab to the same bank, told the driver to wait, went in and handed a note to a different teller - who handed him $1,740 and another dye pack.
This one burst inside the cab, prompting the driver to jump out and the never-say-dye Thompson to take the wheel, speed off and abandon the car a few blocks away, authorities said.
