Bank Robbery Increase

As the economy continues to go into a tailspin, the FBI is bracing for a potential spike in bank robberies as Christmas approaches. "The holidays are a stressful time for everyone, and with the economy on top of that, we anticipate the desperation factor to play a part in the thoughts of individuals who otherwise normally would not do something like this," FBI Special Agent Juan Becerra told the Deseret News on Wednesday.

Increase Robbery Bank

People who rob banks usually do not think things through thoroughly. They usually act on implulse rather than forethought. It is rare to have a well planned heist like you see in the movies. Most bank robbers are apprehended within a relatively short time. I knew a guy once who robbed a bank (who knows why) and when the police almost immediately gave chase he started throwing the money out the car window (like-oh I really didn't mean it.) He served his time. Criminals usually do not have the brightest bulbs burning.
