I don't think bank robbers really keep on top of state statistics!

The bank I do my banking at was held up a few weeks/months ago. Its in Patchogue.

For about 2-3 weeks after, they had an old man security guard. He didn't even scare me. The robbers would have just laughed at him if they came back.
