“The Perfect Excuse”

A Taiwanese bank robber has just won an award for the most absurd robbery. 45-year-old Mr. Sun Cruk turned up at a bank and demanded money using a toy gun threaten the bank staff. Then, instead of running away, he just sat and wanted to be arrested. When the police arrived at the bank, they found Cruk sitting in a chair holding 230 000 New Taiwan dollars (about 6800 euros). Cruk later told journalists: “I didn`t mean to rob the bank. I wanted the police to arrest me and send me to prison because there were some guys who wanted me to pay back some money they`d lent me.” But the police doubted the story. Police officer Lee said: “If we hadn`t arrived so soon, he would have grabbed the money and run away.”
