#315661 Yeah it looks like there were more officers to control the crowd than to arrest the criminals. Probably some good traffic jams too from people stopping their car to pick up 100's :thumb:

#315688 I wonder if those are marked bills... Usually when you have a huge chunk of $$, they are sequentially marked and can be tracked if spent together.
That's awesome that they knew they were going to get nabbed so they were like "F it! Here you go streets of LA...." Hopefully enough individuals grabbed the loose cash so that it can't be traced. It's about time a bank gets screwed by the people instead of people getting screwed by the big banks :thumb:
