Roman Report post Posted August 15, 2009 So.... Today is the 14th.... AKA "BANK DAY" for me.... At noon, Tony and I ran down the hill to the BofA to get cash from the ATM ($300.00) About an hour later the place got robbed. When The Bad guy came out, he was greeted by the Irvine and Tustin Police Departments, pulled his gun and shot himself in the head while the ATM customers looked on in horror... I HAD planned to go to the bank AFTER lunch (T was hungry and bitchy).... But for some reason decided to go BEFORE.... Otherwise we would have been right in the middle of the whole thing... http://cbs2.com/local/Bank.Robber.Irvine.2.1129416.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman Report post Posted August 15, 2009 Good thing you weren't there brotha. Especially due to the amount of firepower you carry with you Im sitting here going through the "What ifs" and possible scenarios.... The only thing I can come up with is: 1. GRAB THE BOY AND RUN UNTIL MY BACK GIVES OUT (or til Im behind hard cover which there is a LOT of there...) But Im just thinking about the HIGH probablity of a crossfire between the bad guys and the cops, and being caught right in the middle of the fcuking thing..... But Im also thinking of the other tactics the BG could have used... Including GRABBING A HOSTAGE.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo50Mike Report post Posted August 15, 2009 I'm just glad he checked himself out, rather than waste our money on litigation, court fees, prision fees, parole fees, etc, etc...Or even worse, take some people out with him... Glad you weren't involved either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ts640 Report post Posted August 15, 2009 Hell yes. Glad to hear you were prepared for the worst. Situations like this really wake you up, even if you think you are prepared for such a situation. Have a big dinner with Tony to celebrate good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Report post Posted August 15, 2009 BTW.... I think the CBS video ends pretty hilariously: "We dont know what was going on in his brain when he decided to shoot himself..." I do... hemorrhaging... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpohl402 Report post Posted August 15, 2009 Regarding the Concealed Carry.... I was under the impression in California those were incredibly difficult to get.... and how come every time I purchase firearms with Hi-Capacity magazines, the hard-sided cases have stickers stating "Not Legal In California" ?? Just curious, thanks.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chimay52 Report post Posted August 15, 2009 Wow! Glad you weren't caught in that and were out by the time it happened. You don't need to buy a lottery ticket, it sounds like you already won today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anon Report post Posted August 15, 2009 Including GRABBING A HOSTAGE.... I get the impression it would never get to that point... If you're carrying, you know full well you would drop him before he ever got close.

Just curious, thanks.... Both are true.... Its incredibly hard to get one, and Hi cap magazines are illegal to purchase here....

BLK85 Report post Posted August 15, 2009 Ive got one better for you. I was at an ATM inside a grocery store with a bank also. Minutes after I left the place it was robbed. My receipt said 5:55pm and they news said it was robbed around 6pm. They caught the guy later, not very smart to go to a bank in a grocery store at 6pm.
