National Australia Bank in Woden robbed.

Be on the lookout for a bloke with a really weird-looking birth mark on his face…!

s4nta – nah, they held up an armored car outside the commonwealth, ground floor of belcompton mall, when they were makin a delivery, or ap ickup.. i forget which.

That’s right, but immediately after the 9.30pm movie starts they’d be consolidating cash rather than dropping – at 10 to 15 bucks a ticket and 100 or more people having just paid… well, you do the maths.

Like I said, there are easier ways to make a couple of thousand bucks.

Most cinemas (and most retail outlets I’d venture) take cash drops throughout the night to ensure the maximum in the till never exceeds a certain amount.

now, now lets not give another MO to crazy chester.

If I were going to commit an armed holdup (which I wouldn’t – there are easier ways to get money), I reckon I’d take off a large movie cinema. At 9.30pm there’s a couple of spotty teenagers around, and lots of people pay in cash. Wouldn’t be too hard to disappear into the night afterwards.

was that the one where they hung in the roof spce for a bit, then surprised the morning staff by nearly falling on top of them andy?

Apparently stan, someone got a bit of a nip by getting in the road of fuelled up, knife wielding ice junkie as he was tearing out of the place

> Actually mr bands, Westfield Woden…

It has been since it was built & always will be known as Woden Plaza…no matter what the “official” name is.

How stupid are these people ? Noone (well, very few people) ever gets away with holding up banks.
It DOES, however, bring to mind the armed holdup at Belco, outside the CBA years and years back, possibly even 10 years ago..
That wasn’t a bank though.. and ttbomk, they got away with that one..

It’s been known as “Woden Plaza” forever. Westfield keep trying to change it. I have no idea why, as it seems to me that a ‘known brand’ works for you.

But what do I know?
