CLEVELAND, Ohio – An unidentified man said “divine intervention” compelled him to pass a note Wednesday demanding $16,000 from a Huntington Bank in Cleveland’s Lee-Harvard neighborhood, police reports say.

The bank’s manager refused to hand over any money, and the man left without taking anything from the branch on Harvard Avenue near East 169th Street, according to a police report.

No arrests have been made in the case, police said.

The man did not have any weapons on him during the incident, police reports say.

He came into the bank just after 12:30 p.m. and told two employees that he needed to speak to a manager. The manager was busy, so the man waited almost a half-hour.

An employee asked the man whether he needed help with anything, but the man said “nope, this is God’s business” and pointed his finger upwards, police reports say.

The bank manager eventually invited the man into his office. The man closed the door and slid the manager a note demanding $16,000, police reports say.

The manager refused to give the man any money. The man replied by saying it was “divine intervention that God wanted him to have $16,000,” police reports say.

The manager told the man to take the note to his church. The man took the note with him when he left the bank.

Witnesses said the man got into a gold-colored car and headed south on Lee Road.

Huntington Bank could not immediately provide security camera footage, but planned to provide it to investigators later, police reports say.
