TAKOMA PARK, Md. - Dramatic video shows an alleged bank robber being taken down by police after slipping and falling on ice. WARNING – GRAPHIC VIDEO
The incident happened at the Capital One Bank in Takoma Park, Md. around 9:00 a.m. on Friday.
Police had the bank surrounded when the alleged robber came out of the front door with what looked like a gun to the head of a female hostage.
As the robber made his way from the bank with the hostage he appeared to slip on ice that covered the parking lot after a Wednesday snow storm.
Police immediately moved in and fired shots at the alleged robber.
Video shows the suspect falling to the ground and police taking him away.
His condition is unknown at this time.
The hostage escaped uninjured.
ROTFLMAO. Best laugh today!
Suspect had styrofoam taped to body—fake bomb
several officers shot/killed suspect. one injured in leg in crossfire
We weren’t making fun of the severity of what happened here. It was just when we saw the title, that was the first thing that came to mind.
Bad guy dropped like a bag of rocks. He be daid.
I love happy endings.
“If he survives, I bet he sues the bank about the ice...”
Of course!!
That videos been censored now. What the hell is wrong with people? Isn’t the media supposed to be about reporting the truth??
Feel free to express your commendations of the officers’ performance to Chief Ronald Ricucci.

They’re a bunch of friggin’ WIMPS. Let potential crooks see what REALLY happens to violent lawbreakers, they will see and LEARN. Who gives a f*** in the a** about how “traumatized” the little savages get?
