Bank robber breaks back in to return cash
LONDON (Reuters) - A robber who stole 115,000 pounds in cash from a bank broke back in a week later to give most of it back, police have said.



The thief got into the Barclays Bank in east London, smashed a window and helped himself to the cash in the ATM machine.


A week later baffled staff called detectives to say the robber had returned 104,000 pounds.


"We were contacted by staff saying a large amount of cash had been found in a black bag in the premises," a police spokesman said on Tuesday.

2. A Communist bank robber?

When you rob a bank, I would suppose there's no time to stop and count the loot without risking getting caught.

A Communist would just take what they need.

A Capitalist would take all they could get--and want more.

On principle anyways.
