Something About This Stinks
Call us paranoid, but this just seems a bit odd:
Chicago police arrested a 79-year-old woman suspected of trying to rob a downtown bank with a toy gun Tuesday evening.
The woman entered the Bank of America branch on N. Dearborn St. about 6:45 p.m., walked up to a teller, displayed a weapon and demanded money, according to a report from the police First Deputy Superintendent's office.
After waiting a few moments for the teller to comply with her demands, the woman walked to the exit door and left the bank without any money, the deputy's report said.
She's old enough to know better. So either Grandma is a nut job or Grandma is hoping for a confrontation to get shot and score a big payday. Anyone have details on this?

Its pretty funny
Could you imagine that foot chase......
shoot er; grandma gots a gun and izz robbn' da bank, shoot er...
Maybe she's run out of money to live on, doesn't have any kids she can move in with, and is hungry. Hopefully, someone saw this for what it is and got her some help.
After reading the case reports and doing a little background on this caper, I have found out a couple of things.
The 79 year old in question is none other than the play auntie of Rev. Meeks, the real auntie of Jessie Jackson, the baby's momma of Rev. Jakes, and former wet nurse of Todd Stroger.
I could just see it now. The bold, brave, men of the big, bad FBI making granny do the perp walk.
Rumor has it that she needed the money, cause SOS hit her house by mistake and stole from her any way. Details at ten.
Euthinasia by cop!
She's the same granny you see in the bugs bunny cartoons. The sharp teller noted the two dimension characteristics right away, but felt compelled to push the panic button..granny walked out, grabbed a taxi that had large round eyes and toothy smile where the grille and headlights are and headed towards Toonville. Report tonight by none other than the infamous Carol Marin....she always gets the good scoops.
yea it stinks, because she was also wearing a DEPENDS that needed changing real bad....
Oh yea, she left the BB gun behind at the teller window.
FBI? Thank god for the FBI! They took a serial bigamist off the streets! Wow, we can all sleep safely in out beds at last. I for one am way more afraid of deranged Mormons and their multiple wives than I am of any terrorist. You can only wonder how that guy got on the ten most wanted. Must have run off with some FBI dudes wife.
WHAT ABOUT THE FBI SITTING ON A BANK IN 018 ON TUESDAY AND THEN IT GETTING ROBBED BY AN INDIVIDUAL THEY WERE LOOKING FOR. FLIPPIN PRICELESS
