This bank robber skipped the cash and went for the carpets.
Aptly named thief William Footman copped to swiping more than 50 carpets from ATM vestibules at banks all over Manhattan.
The Bronx burglar pleaded guilty to grand larceny in the third degree on Nov. 27 in Manhattan Supreme Court in exchange for a sentence of two to four years in prison, court records show.
Footman, 55, sold the industrial-grade carpets, worth about $400 a pop, to a Harlem bodega owner for a steeply discounted $30, prosecutors said.
Footman was busted on May 25 when cops spotted him carrying a carpet from a Chase ATM lobby at the corner of Broadway and Pine streets.
“I work for ABC carpet and I am taking it for a cleaning,” Footman initially told police when they questioned him.
Eventually, the crook confessed to the carpet heists which were caught on bank surveillance video.
