The place is a fortress! They have two or three inch thick Plexiglas all around the teller’s counter and lock-in lock-out procedures that should make the place, um, ‘rather difficult’ to rob. And yet this is the second robbery at that bank that I have the privilege to write about.
Last time around some rocket scientist opened an account, then robbed the place twenty minutes later – after giving them all his contact information and letting them photocopy his drivers license.
This time a local kid pulled the ‘pass the teller a note trick’ and then hid across the street in another bank!
There are at least five banks within about a mile of each other on Great Road. Northern is the most heavily fortified of the lot. And that’s the one that keeps getting robbed. Iduno… Maybe that’s the attraction? These to geniuses almost seem to want to get caught.
The other thing that I don’t understand: In such a heavily fortified bank why on earth would they just hand over a bunch of cash when no weapon was shown?
If it were me I’d add one more gizmo to the kit and have a way to remotely lock the outside doors. Some punk hands me a note demanding cash, I’d hit the remote lock and tell him to have a seat. His ride down town will be here in just a few minutes.
Yeash!
