Bank robbery suspect cited economy in botched heist

A Burlingame bank robbery suspect who crashed his car and scattered money on Interstate 880 in Hayward had taken $38,000 and told police that he committed the holdup because of the economy.

The suspect jumped on the counter, flashed a .38-caliber chrome revolver and ordered the seven people in the bank to the ground. Classic “take-over” bank robbery, as opposed to a “note job”.

When police tried to pull the car over, the suspect sped off and crashed as he attempted to enter the freeway going north. Poor get-away driving. The driver tried to run away, but pursuing officers shocked him with a Taser and arrested him.

I said in Outlook for 2008 to expect to “see more high-dollar International heists in 2008”. The Down Economy will also bring out more amateurs on low-dollar heists as well.
