A couple of hours ago I was escorting a friend to the tube at Bethnal Green, as we walked passed the bank, police cars surrounded the bank, one driving straight at the door, then a dozen police officers with machine guns surrounded the bank pointing their guns through the windows and one shouted "put it down". Who is so stupid to try to rob a bank in this day and age ? I'm sure this will be on the news soon, wish I had filmed it, but my friend wanted to get away, guess she was right, but it did look like something out of a movie.
