Robbing a bank takes a lot of things. This apparently includes pants with button-able pockets.
Because you REALLY don't want to accidentally have your wallet fall out while making your getaway.
It's embarrassing.
Thank you to my reader Lee for submitting this.
I haven't worked any cases like this robbery, but I have investigated more than one hit-and-run accident where the culprit's license plate fell off at the scene, or as in one case, where the culprit rear-ended the victim so hard it left a reverse image of the guy's plate number in the victim's rear bumper. When I got to his house, he came out to greet me before I could even get out of my squad car, asking if we could conduct business out of his wife's hearing. I obliged him with a fistful of tickets, written out of his wife's line of sight.
