Stop And Steal
A Brinks truck spilled $300,000. For dozens of bystanders it was 'finders keepers.' Take this poll. What would you do?
The back doors of an armored truck fly open and bags of cash fall to the street. The truck drives on. Anywhere from 50 to 100 people start scooping up the loot.
Whose money is it now?
Brinks Home Security reported it lost about $300,000 in a debacle like this last week. The police in Oak Park, Ill., say anyone caught with this cash could face jail time.
How did the doors fly open? No explanation. The FBI is investigating. Most likely some dumbass Brinks employee left the doors ajar.
Some security force they’ve got going there.
Brinks has declined to comment.
And this is not the first time this has happened.
