Cop robs bank, uses police vehicle as getaway car


Juergen Richter, a 55-year-old detective, from Germany robbed a bank without wearing a mask. He waved his policed-issued gun and drove off in his unmarked patrol car. He walked out with close to $12,000, but his image was caught on CCTV.

Did he think because his car was unmarked that he'd get away with it? Did he not think that banks have CCTV? I wonder if he wore his uniform with his name badge. Now THAT would be funny.

Thief robs X-rated store with syringe


A woman in Melbourne, Australia hit up an x-rated store for her second robbery of the night. You're probably thinking she used a toy gun, pointed her finger through her pocket to pretend it's a gun, a real gun, knife, or a baseball bat. You're wrong.

Guess what she used. Can't guess? Well, she used a syringe. Police don't know if it's a used syringe or if there's any possibility that her victim could contract anything because they can't find her.

She browsed around the x-rated store for about 30 minutes waiting for the rest of the customer to leave. Then, she went up to the employee demanding the money. A struggle broke out and the employee ended up being pricked with the syringe. She's had blood tests, but it'll take three months before results come back.

Anyways, the employee pushed a lock button which locked the front door. The robber pulled out a handgun which was fake, and started crying when the employee called the cops.
