Oy-Vey! Thats my favorite bank. I hope they put out a sketch of the suspect and offer a 25,000 reward. Maybe they can throw in a free toaster as well.
#1 if they give you $25,000 i hope can buy afford a toaster
i saw steve wexler and another few detectives hard at work the ocean county sheriffs dog was following the sents from the bank it took them behind shlomies kosher world thru the gas station hope they catch him
Gishmak – in all likelihood it will be a Kosher Lamp!
I was there at 7:05. They were giving a free shobbos lamp to naybody who was willing to look for this guy. LOL
Any update?
That bank always looks like as if there is nothing to rob.
The oilam shouldn’t make fun. They gave money to yeshivos and shuls for opening accounts. Also, the shabbos lamps were a nice thing to give out. Why is everyone so cynical?
#3 are you sure the dogs weren’t following the “cents” from the bank 🙂
#8. Take a chill LKWDFELLOW. Just having a little fun. Enjoy YW!!
is there any relation to the boro park bank robbery 15 minutes earlier ?>
i am sure we will all get a sketch of this nut to rob a bank at the biggest intersection in lakewood.
the guy got guts.
sassoon12— if you want people to know about the bp robbery just say so
yes #11: the same guy robbed a bank in b.p. then quickly skipped over to lkwd and robbed another.the reason they didnt find him yet is because hes robbing his next one in kentucky.
#11: Do you mean to ask if there is a connection between a Boro Park robbery and a Lakewood robbery? Do you think he took a F-15 from the first robbery straight to the Commerce flight deck on the roof, and had the crew keep the engines warm while he pilfered the monies stored below?
How much did he steal?
#1 Gishmak in Lakewood,
Isnt a bank that serves the great Torah community of Lakewood enough of a reason to help find this guy! why do you need an incentive to do a Mitzvah!
The cops caught the perps speeding and gave them a ticket and let them go. (Come on Chief Lawson, you can take a joke).

Explain your question please.
There was once a famous bank robber named Willie Sutton, who after much success was caught….. when he was asked why he robbed banks, he answered ‘because that is where the money is’! I wonder what he would answer to ‘why rob banks in Lakewood’?
Att: #7 & #16 overheard from one of the LPD detectives 286 pens were stolin
Robber took “America’s most convenient bank” to another level…
Hey, I made a cash deposit the other day – Hope they didnt take my money…
#17 Yeshivish Hocker, i think that #1 had a very good point.
Tapuach: its because Lakewood is where the money is now!!
To #17 Yeshivish Hocker
I wasn’t saying that I would for sure not do a mitzvah without a reward. Don’t you know the famous mishna in Avot that one should not do mitzvos to receive a reward.
But hey brother – It sure helps!
I don’t mind driving up and down the roads searching, but I want to cash in a little bit.
And also, is it really called a ‘mitzvah’ if the bank is owned by goyim?
#25 it’s a chessed to get an armed robber off the streets of lakewood
#12, He is not nuts at all, he knows what he’s doing. Picking a busy intersection like that gives him a better chance of escape and getaway.
#16 for an answer to your question, – look @ your name…!
