    I think it's prolly the same guy that did the freeland linds.Island county didn't catch that guy either right?The guy got away on foot to top it off come on now.Don't tellers have a button under the counter that trips the alram sending police to the scene right away.Seems to me like it's known to criminals around here that it would prolly be easy to get away with robbery soley because of response time.It's not because of the mask cuz how many times has that been done before.I'm starting to have little to no faith
    in the island county sheriffs dep.
