Bang Crime Payoff

This is the latest news about some enterprising individuals... Making their reputations with a big bang while others slumber.. Presumably amateurs for they dabbled with fire crackers... Theirs was an outrageous act of crime that was no laughing matter... Their little stunt of exploding a Automatic Teller Machine or ATM.. Yielded cold hard cash of some cool RM70,000 from the exploded ATM.. It happened the wee early hours in some obscure little sleepy town ... You can bet your last dollar that this little caper is now the talk of the town.. In the swirling aftermath of this crime, the local inhabitants had no idea.. Who were the criminals who smartly embarked on such a novel idea... What an explosive way to withdraw money, illegal money galore... A quick getaway in the wee early hours, none the wiser who they were... Looks like the horse has flown the barn as the police hastened into action.. A little too late, the burglars have flown the coup and from retribution... Only time will tell if this audacious criminal gang will be finally hauled in.. But the fact remains, they have made an instant fortune of RM70,000 all in... Not a bad haul, a rather tidy sum in cold cash for the gang members... Undoubtedly they will be splitting their ill gotten gains altogether.... As long as these gang members keep away from the long arm of the law .... They will get to enjoy the spoils of their heist, until their funds run low... Then it is time again for another such caper in some small town... For there are numerous such cash dispensing machines all over town... The maxim crime does not pay does not hold water for these criminals... Very soon the local internet media will be abuzzed with their next haul... http://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2016/05/11/robbers-blast-atm-escape-with-rm70000/
