Vienna - Two Austrian teenagers who say they wanted to play an April fool's prank by pretending to rob a bank ended up with charges of attempted robbery, Austrian media reported Thursday.

The boys aged 14 and 15 entered a bank in Eisenstadt in eastern Austria on Wednesday. While one of them shouted "Robbery, robbery," the other one filmed the scene with his mobile phone camera, police said.

The teenagers left the bank after a few moments without any bounty and were soon found by police on a nearby park bench. (dpa)
