DREXEL HILL, Pa. (CBS) - A suspect is under arrest, accused of selling dynamite linked to some of the 100 ATM explosions that have rattled the Delaware Valley. The Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office on Wednesday announced charges against Talib Crump.
Crump is accused of selling dynamite sticks on social media and allegedly told undercover police officers during a sting that dynamite sticks are “better than bullets” for robbing ATMs.
State prosecutors say Crump provided some of the explosive products that have been used to blow up ATMs across Philadelphia, a pattern that has since only intensified.
**SNIP**
At an earlier news conference, Philadelphia Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw strongly condemned the destruction of ATMs. Just the other night, a man was killed detonating an explosive device inside one.
“It’s not worth it. It’s not worth the injury that we’re seeing associated with this, it’s not worth the risk to the community and the danger that it’s been imposing,” Outlaw said.
Prosecutors say Crump allegedly told undercover officers that he had enough explosives to blow up four more ATMs and each one would net him about $8,500.

Pennsylvania Dutch? Video of the idiot @ the link.
How hard is it to get one’s hands on dynamite? Isn’t it regulated heavily?
And, why do I have a mental image of Wyle E Coyote rolling in my brain....
“It’s not worth it. It’s not worth the injury that we’re seeing associated with this, it’s not worth the risk to the community and the danger that it’s been imposing,” Outlaw said”
You think? What a wishy washy statement. Almost like she is cool with robbing ATM’s just use something other than dynamite to crack them open. “Outlaw” what an appropriate name, She is a Peter Principle Poster child.
CRUMP??? Is this any relation to the CRUMP person helping George Floyd family??
Amish strike again...in Amish land.
And I used to think that was just a punch line....
j/k
Who cares. Some leftist, democrat appointed judge will let him off with little or no punishment.

No relation to Floyd the barber that I know of, but a distant kin to teacher Helen Crump.
Wow! Like what method of robbery makes it ok? Stupid police commissioner.
Except this is a federal crime. Robbing banks tends to get you a stay at club fed for a long stretch.
Now using explosives to blow up the statue of Frank Rizzo or his horse would have been okee dokee.
There are still plenty of clinton, bush and obama appointed judges that will let these perpetrators go with little or no punishment usually due to a technicality.

Next step in the predictable progression: IEDs and booby traps.
This is why we do NOT want to send active-duty military into failed Democrat cities, where looters and arsonists are released with no bail by communist DAs.
The predictable resulting urban warfare will all be blamed on Trump’s decision to send the military.
Let the Democrats own their failed “progressive” cities.
Yes. See 14.
Selling dynamite on social media. Not the brightest bulb in the pack.
Wasn’t Talib Crump the Jihadist Imam of the Mayberry Mosque on The Andy Griffith Show?
Philly ping!
LOL!
