Bank In Kroger Store Held Up By Man Wearing Skeleton Mask, Brandishing Semi-Auto Gun
Cincinnati Police are searching for a suspect who robbed the Fifth Third Bank inside a Kroger store. The suspect wore a skeleton mask, carried an umbrella and brandished a semi-automatic handgun at the teller, demanding cash.
The man stole an undetermined amount of cash, then placed the money in a black nylon bag with white letters and fled the bank.
Police say the man is believed to have fled toward the rear of the adjacent Wal-Mart store.
Just to make an unbiased point (I joke), he could be this open carry Kroger shopper:
He could be anyone. Seriously, Krogs (I can call you Krogs, right?), maybe you should look through your surveillance footage because your new clientele looks pretty suspicious.
Like this nice gentleman.
Kroger doesn’t allow skateboards, shirtless shoppers or kids eating an ice cream cone, but an armed man wearing a skeleton mask slips past their radar. Maybe he was just blending in.
Safety for Kroger’s shoppers should be a thing, but I don’t want to stomp on anyone’s rights to totally freak the public out.
Big thanks to my source for the link.

It’s curious there is even a bank branch inside a store that allows untrained armed people to roam around in the first place. They are just asking for trouble..

i didn’t know krogs had a bank within its stores. that makes about as much sense as taking a bath with a fricken cat. and no, i’ve never tried. lol.

—————————————————————————————————————-
Riskiest part of this hold-up was the robber going into Wal-mart, he might have been shot there if someone had thought to call the police and report a scary looking guy w/agun.
Seriously how f’n sad that this guy robs a bank and gets away while an innocent man is gunned down by police with a stinking BB gun.

now. ain’t that the truth?

whatthe46 October 15th, 2014 at 22:06
you. are. a. big. baby. LOL. what’s the matter? the article isn’t made up of lies. unlike you gun nuts who lie that it would be just a peachy idea to carry in a fk’n grocery store. by the way, this is better than good read. its a keeper. as a matter of fact, i’m gonna read it again and smile my happy go lucky a&& off.
kjohnson October 15th, 2014 at 23:03
I used to try and reason with your crowd, but it is casting pearls before swine (that second one is starting to look like it is literal in many cases). The article is made up of some of the most faulty logic ever devised. If you people are too ignorant to realize that a bank robber is not going to care if there is a No Guns sign at the Kroger, then you are beyond hope. It is ALREADY ILLEGAL to go into a BANK with a GUN and rob it. The status of the Kroger is irrelevant.
The fact that this just happens to be the second place from Cincinnati that has been reported on today makes me wonder if some clown from MDA is going out and holding up people at Kroger locations to try and prove a point. Given the fact that a sick goon associated with the Mommies Whining Loudly got a guy killed at a Wal Mart by making a false 911 call, I put nothing past you sick, sorry excuses for human beings.
whatthe46 October 15th, 2014 at 23:50
you are dense. i don’t care what idiot went into krogs to rob the bank, krogs made it easy for someone to feel comfortable walking in without anyone raising a brow. all gurards are down. and that’s a dumb pathetic assumption to think that the moms had anything to do with this. not only are you people paranoid but you specialize in conspiracy theories when there is none. this guy just proved the point of every sane person in this country, one being don’t allow guns in fk’n grocery stores. or anywhere else for that matter where everyday citizens patrionize. dummy.
Julie G October 16th, 2014 at 00:57
I followed the Wal-Mart shooting closely, and there have been no reports that Ritchie, the 911 caller, had anything to do with MDA. He likely was a racist that just wanted jollies by watching a black guy get hassled by the police. He was a liar, and even told the media he was an ex-Marine. He actually was booted for a fraudulent enlistment. You probably read that on some gun-rights site. People that spread falsehoods seem to accuse others of what they themselves do; deflection is the term for that tactic.

It’s just a matter of time before something like this happens when there is a wanna be hero gun toter in the oreo aisle. If he can get his gun from around his neck and off his back without shooting himself, everyone else in the store will be in danger of being shot, and not by the robber.
