Big Spring bank robbery, Wednesday
"Hump-Day Bank Robber." Well, I thought it was a cute moniker, but it no longer applies as the Wednesday bank robber struck again yesterday, a Thursday. This time it was at the First National Bank on Wadley St. in Midland.
El Banco Bandido is getting more aggressive. Yesterday he brandished a weapon and actually spoke rather than relying on a note. Here's the Midland Reporter-Telegram article.
The photo above appeared in the Big Spring Herald and shows the robber at the bank in Big Spring on Wednesday. Great photo, huh?
Anyone who has read my other missives (here, here, and here.) about this bank robber know that I have complained about the quality of the photographs that come from bank surveillance cameras. It's always a grainy photo that appears to be virtually useless for identification purposes. Maybe I'm missing something here. But, it seems that if they had some quality equipment that could take a representative photo and those photos were made public then this fellow could be apprehended quite easily. But, what do I know?
Anyway, no one has been hurt, thank goodness!
