He wears a mask and rides a non-poluting bicycle!

No helmet? And he appears to be melanin deficient.

They will get him for that offense.

WBBM in Chicago also Part of Channel 2 - The Far Left of the Left - If the reporter for WBBM could have helped out, they would have given the Bank Robber a ride in their news van.

Woah! The FBI is on the trail of a bike riding robber, ya think they might make a collar? Maybe they should defund the FBI and start over.

The Far Left of the Left

Oh my.

The first few hundred names from the phonebook would be an improvement.

If you ever read Robert Feder, the JJ Jackson story demanding a raise for Felicia is still brought up. JJ also called for a boycott of WBBM - they caved very quickly.

“One of the most successful bank robbers in history used a bike for his get away vehicle.’

Was that the guy from Northbrook or Deerfield IL?
Sometimes gave his loot away?
Moved his operations to Cali, was caught because of his unusual custom racing bike.
A long but fun read.
And I think I know the guy that posted that article here on FR!
