One of two men suspected of making off with a bag containing $150,000 in cash that was mistakenly left behind by ATM workers bought an SUV with the money hours later, police said.
Alton Harvey, 42, of Hillside, was arrested Wednesday after police traced a white van that was captured on surveillance video pulling up to the bag of cash that the ATM employees forgot outside a business in Mahwah, in northern New Jersey, on Monday. The video showed a passenger in the van grabbing the bag.

There are other criteria too. One of which is the types of cars in the neighborhood. Another is how well kept up the properties are. And the types of businesses are definitely a key indicator. A preponderance of bars on the windows of homes and businesses is yet another indicator.
One of ozeros sons. Again!
He needs the protection of jail.
Everyone knows that ATMs are covered by mega-video, so he should have walked up with a big blanket covering his mug...

You would have stood out!
Joseph "Joey" Coyle (February 26, 1953 – August 15, 1993) was an unemployed longshoreman in Philadelphia who, in February 1981, found $1.2 million in the street after it had fallen out of the back of an armored car and kept it. His story was made into the 1993 film Money for Nothing, starring John Cusack, as well as a 2002 book by Mark Bowden, Finders Keepers: The Story of a Man Who Found $1 Million.Coyle passed out some of the money, in $100 bills, to friends and neighbors. He was arrested later in 1981 at JFK Airport while trying to check in to a flight to Acapulco; police found $105,000 of the cash in envelopes taped around his ankles. He was tried, but found not guilty of theft by reason of temporary insanity. The armored car company, Purolator Armored Services, eventually recovered around $1 million of the original amount.
Coyle struggled with drug addiction for most of his adult life. He committed suicide by hanging in his basement on August 15, 1993, about one month before the film Money for Nothing was released.
If I was his Family I would have sued Purolator Armored Services for negligence which led to the suicide! (sarc)

But there is also a meth epidemic...
I know what you mean. I lived 12 years at an inexpensive apartment complex in a city in Maryland where the median income in the city was $85,000.
I could tell how the economy was going by the quality of cars in the parking lot. In 2008 the quality really shot up, and as 2011 rolled on the quality started down and vacancies in the complex picked up.
An ATM once gave me an extra 20. I took it into the bank and gave it to the teller. I got a frosty reception and nary a “thank you.” Fortunately it didn’t turn me into a nasty Sanders / Clinton “screw the banks” type.
This is why I don’t buy lottery tickets. ;-)
I have said that if God wanted me to win the lotto I would only have to buy one ticket. I did. I didn’t win. :-D
He was only arrested because of white man privileged!
There was a episode of Fraser where his dad got extra money from an ATM and after a lot of badgering from Fraser his dad tried to give it back and the bank just kept giving him MORE money! Man that was a funny episode!
How about wheel rental stores?
Yep, they actually exist.

"What did I tell you? DON'T BUY ANYTHING!"

They probably got to “Stacks” though.
