Another Bank Robbed.

[Marty Hout]

The Charter One Bank at Ridgewood and Madison was just robbed(10am). Are times really that hard right now that we're gonna see a rash of bank robberies or do you think it's just coincidence?

banks are robbed every day, during good times and bad. i refuse to blame the times on crime. i see 'now hiring' signs all over the place and i'd wager that these business actually provide paychecks for their employees. i'd rather put in 40 hours at mcdonalds than rob a bank. i'd work any job if it meant feeding my family. what i wouldn't do, is rob a bank.

i think it's a matter of pride and most people who resort to robbing banks refuse to bite theirs in order to get ahead. alot of people are just not responsible and they take advantage of the ones who are. bank robbers are criminals. period. good times or bad times, they are criminals and i'm not going to fall for the "blame everything but the criminal" game.

i wish the crime would stop, but it's not going to, no matter what sort of times we are living in.

Bank robber returns to Family Dollar next to the CharterOne Bank he robbed two hours earlier. He is arrested after positive ID is made. Apparently lives on Cohassett, or did anyways...
