Weird news - Hole under the road for bank robbery
Robberies can take some weird forms. When you read about the various forms and types taken by robberies in the past, you can come across some weird examples where people have tried all sort of things - in home robberies, people have tried to come in through chimneys and even large pipes, for banks and vaults, robbers have tried to dig in through tunnels so that they can get inside undetected. Sometimes, these attempts have been stopped in the nick of time, through security measures meant to protect against thefts. However, there are other times when these attempts have been discovered by accident and thefts avoided, such as this case where road workers were attempting to fix a sinkhole under a road and found that somebody was building a tunnel to a bank (link to article):
Road workers in Florida sent out to repair a sinkhole got a surprise this week when they discovered it was caused by a tunnel leading to a nearby bank. The FBI posted pictures of the narrow underground tunnel leading to a branch of Chase Bank in Pembroke Pines, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) north of Miami. Police and the FBI were called in Tuesday night after the road workers realized that a manhole-sized hole in the road was caused by a tunnel.
