Heroes Prevent Bank Robbery
by admin on Mar.22, 2010, under Uncategorized
When a man wearing a motor cycle helmet walked into the Farmers & Merchants bank in Long Beach, California, on March 5, 2010, a bank customer, David Jones, knew something was wrong. He told the bank manager about his suspicion of an imminent robbery and a silent alarm was set off.
The suspect pulled out a revolver and screamed for people to give him money. One brave bank customer grabbed the gunman and slammed him into the floor, where they struggled for half a minute. Many shots were fired, wounding the hero and one other customer; the suspect apparently accidentally also shot himself during the struggle. Jones came to assist the hero and three men eventually brought the suspect under control.
