Geezer Bandit terrorizes San Diego


So this is the infamous "Geezer Bandit" who has knocked over as many as 5 banks in the Southern California area.

Since he has used a gun, authorities say he is armed and dangerous. The latest heist happened late last month in La Jolla, where witnesses said the bank robber "fled" on foot after sticking up the teller.

I'm not sure whether to laugh, be amazed, wish this guy was my grandpa, or somehow be appalled that an O.A.P. (Old Age Pensioner as they call them in Britain) is gang-busting his way through the San Diego area. Maybe a combination of all of them.

The main question, I think, is this a last-minute bucket list terror spree kind of thing or a sign of our seriously dire economic times? Only time and the Geezer Bandit himself will tell I suppose.
