Robert Maday - New John Dillinger?

[Yui108]

I don't know if any of you guys have heard of him, but he was all over the news in the Chicago area. He was being escorted to court by two police officers, disarmed both ( took their handguns), switched clothes with them and then handcuffed them inside the police car. He then hotwired a car in a mall parking lot and made his getaway. He was just captured, but in the ~48 hours between his escape and capture he robbed TWO banks for around $15,000. It's probably wrong, but I think this guy is awesome. He never killed or hurt anyone and sort of reminds me of John Dillinger/Jason Bourne. What makes him even more awesome is he is something like 5' 6'' tall and 150 pounds.

Was he smart enough to spend the money quickly?

And that's a lot of money to get from only two banks.

Actually this story reminded my of one of the Crank movies.

Your right, it was 15,000. Thanks for drawing attention to that missed fact.
