Bank Robbers Dead in Shoot-out with Police
Two bank robbers (pictured) and a 49 year old bank customer, that was taken hostage and shot in the chest, were killed during a shoot-out between cops and a total of 10 bank robbers last Friday in Brazil. The customer was used by the criminals as a human shield during the shooting, which started inside the bank branch and then they took him hostage while fleeing in a couple of cars. After a few minutes, the lifeless body of him was found one kilometer from the bank branch. The video shows 5 hooded men in two cars carrying rifles and machine guns. After parking the cars in front of the bank, the group enters the bank agency. The robbers took a few seconds until they approached the revolving doors and then break the glass wall that gives access to the bank branch. One of the robbers pulled a hostage by the hair inside of the agency. They used dynamite to try to blow up the bank vault. A truck driver told he was forced by the criminals to stop his vehicle in front of the bank branch to disrupt the police access. He reports that the attackers arrived at the bank shooting at the ceiling. "In the meantime, I got off the truck and the police already arrived and the shooting started," he recalls. The 5 robbers fled the scene carrying two pouches. According to the police, they left the bank branch in two cars, but a third vehicle was outside supporting the action. During the escape four of them intercepted a car, exchanged their vehicle and took that driver hostage also. Kilometers away, the vehicle was surrounded by police and there was a new shooting. One of the criminals died at the scene and two others were injured. The hostage told : "I lay down as much as I could on the seat but I thought I would take a shot in the head. I saw the shots going over me. I was born again," he complained. Eventually he managed to escape unharmed. The fourth criminal who was in that car fled on foot and hid near a farm in the area. There he made a 15 year old hostage and tried to escape with the boy's family car. The hostage's aunt told she was scared. "He took the teenager with him as hostage and ready to put in the car and preparing to leave when the police arrived." The teenager managed to escape unscathed in the midst of a new shooting that left a lieutenant in the military police officer wounded in the leg because of the shrapnel. The criminal ended up dead on the spot. The rest of the group responsible for the bank branch robbery escaped. In all, police found four rifles, three pistols, various ammunition, six kilograms of dynamite and more than R $ 32 thousand reais ($8,485.93) in cash, related to the robbery bank branch, and a closed pouch. According to the Civil Police, at least 10 criminals participated in the assault on the bank. Of these, two died, two are seriously injured and admitted to the Hospital. Police do follow-ups of the suspects who are hospitalized. |

Re: Bank Robbers Dead in Shoot-out with Police
" 'I was born again', he complained." Now that was funny. For some reason I doubt that was a complaint. More like a revelation; an epiphany; an "ah hah" moment. Certainly not a complaint. Lol (Sorry I'm a stickler for descriptive details) |
