Colorado armed robbers' getaway vehicle stolen during heist in ironic twist

Three armed robbers in Colorado had the tables turned on them when someone stole their getaway car, resulting in two of them being arrested, police said.

The masked trio went into the Hi Lo Check Cashing in the Denver suburb of Commerce City just before 11 a.m., the Commerce City Police Department said Tuesday.

During the heist, a female thief "seized the opportunity to do what criminals do - steal what was very likely already a stolen vehicle," a Tuesday police Facebook post said.

The robbers inside the business were forced to flee on foot before two of them were arrested.

"Bested by an industry colleague," the police department said. "It happens to everyone, boys. Because the female car thief took their ride, the armed suspects were forced to flee on foot... and we caught two of them (juvenile males)... and two of their guns."

The third suspect is still being sought.

"So ma'am – whoever you are – we'd like to shake your hand," police said. "Then slap a pair of handcuffs on it because you're also facing Motor Vehicle Theft charges."

That's a shame.

For an incident like this to happen the number of car thieves in that town must be extremely high. Complete breakdown of law and order.

“...you’re also facing Motor Vehicle Theft charges.”

Silly cop. Don’t be surprised if one of the robbers is her boyfriend and the car is hers.

Colorado use to be a great state, then the locusts from California moved in and look at it now, what a tragedy.

There was no designated getaway driver and they left the keys in the ignition?!

Oops, if you can't feel like your getaway vehicle is safe while robbing the joint, you need a safer state... 🤓

Like California...🤓
