December 2, 2012 Updated Dec 2, 2012 at 11:27 AM PDT

An Oregon man wasted little time landing himself back in jail.

Christopher Franklin Weaver, 33, was arrested for an attempted robbery at a local bank less than an hour after he was released from prison.

Weaver left Lane County Jail in Eugene, Oregon, at 11am on Thursday and walked about a mile to the Pacific Continental Bank he was caught sticking up.

He was arrested on the spot and brought back to Lane County Jail 55 minutes after his initial release.

Nobody was injured during the alleged robbery.

Weaver was initially incarcerated for parole violations for sex abuse and for unlawful use of a vehicle.

He now faces federal bank robbery charges on top of that.
