NO MONEY IN ROBBING BANKS
Police say that gangs who may have once eyed “hard targets”, – like the banks themselves, or jewelers – are now going after homes of ordinary people, where there is far less risk and often large stashes of cash freshly withdrawn from savings accounts.
“Many people have withdrawn their money from the banks fearing a financial crash, and they either carry it on them, find a hideout at home or in storage rooms,” said national police spokesman Thanassis Kokkalakis.
