My bank was robbed this morning
 

I woke up around eleven, took a shower, and went to the bank. The place was cordoned off by the cops, with bunch of plainclothes interviewing witnesses. There wasn't an ambulance though, so I guess nobody was hurt. Before leaving I spoke briefly to one of the secutiry guards and he told me that the bank had been robbed.

I'm so glad that I wasn't there half an hour earlier ;)

hope they get away with it :winkwink:

good to hear noone was hurt though :)

YARGH! I be stashin' the booty in the good ship Chio!



Seriously though, I hope no one was hurt.

YARGH! Where be me Parrot! Walk me plank! Ahoy! YARGH! That's better.

Africa ?

no wonder.

I hope for you they didn't stold your cash !

I am glad that you are ok.

Fixed it for you.

Good thing for you that you sleep that late!

I sincerely hope they get shot by the cops, and I really really mean it. Call me sick but every time murderes, rapists, armed robbers etc get shot by the cops I see it as a good news.

Damn, that's crazy/ Luckily my bank has never been robbed (knock on wood).

Imagine you were in the bank during the robbery. You're lucky you weren't.

sad :(
Fuck all thieves !

Your account was #349472 no? Where do I send the remaining 2 bucks? :upsidedow



Thieves sucks :Grrrrrr :boid

Banks get robbed all the time, usually just a guy with a note quietly getting his loot and getting the fuck out.

I used to own a computer store in a strip mall with a bank in the center, nice neighborhood, and it would get robbed about once every 4-5 months.

Once, a guy who robbed it went by me as I was pulling up to the back of my store (I didn't know that he had just robbed the bank).

When I saw cops at the bank, it dawned on me that the guy seemed odd, wearing a baseball cap down tight on his head and dark sunglasses carrying a small backpack and in a hurry, and went and gave a statement to the police. They acted like it happens all the time, no biggie.

I guess the banks like to keep it kinda quiet.

Are banks federally insured in South Africa?

people still rob banks low tech
thats hilarious

The bank is in one of the most expensive suburbs of Pretoria, the robbers chose to do it today because it's the end of the month and a lot of people deposit cash.

From what I've heard in the USA many times it's one guy that robs a bank, but not in South Africa, here it's usually an armed gang of at least 6 people......

close call, timing is everything hehe

fucking robbers

I'm sure they are, bank robberies, cash in transit heists happen qiite often here, if the banks are not insured nobody will keep their money there...

you live in a hardcore country! dont they have special "safety" options for the cars that you cant get in the states?
