There was a local armed bank robbery this morning. I guess that, in and of itself, isn't newsworthy, but what makes it interesting (for me) was that the guys who robbed the bank threw the money out of the car window after being chased by police. The money scattered along the street and bystanders scrambled to scoop it up. One bystander was interviewed on tv and said he recovered $3,000 but was forced to give it up to the police.

This happened about 9:30 this morning, and I was driving by the place where the cops eventually caught the two robbers. I never saw so many police cars, but was more amazed by the number of tv news vans that were there when I returned about an hour later.
