It was around noon when three men who were smartly dress and wearing dark glasses entered a bank. Once inside they drew pistols and ordered everyone in the bank to lie face on the floor. One of them then locked the front door.
While one man stood guard, the other two took all the money from the cashiers' drawers and put it in a bag.
However the robbers were not satisfied and ordered the manager to open the strong room. The frightened manager did as told and the robbers took more money from the strong room.
Finally they ran out of the bank with their loot, but the police was waiting for them. The robbers were ordered to surrender. One robber shot at the police. In reply the police opened fire and he was killed. The other two men meekly surrendered.
