Couple brings kids along for bank heist
TOOELE, Utah (AP) - Police in Utah say they've arrested a husband and wife bank robbery team that took their two children along for the illegal excursion.
An arrest report from Tooele (too-WIHL'-uh) police says the man and woman, both 27, were caught Monday soon after a Wells Fargo branch was robbed. A 5-year-old and a 2-year-old were in the back seat.
According to The Salt Lake Tribune, the couple told police they robbed the bank because they faced eviction and growing medical bills.
Employees told police the woman entered the bank and showed the teller a note demanding money.
The woman reportedly ran from the bank to the car, which was driven by the man.
Police say they searched the vehicle and found the demand note, along with hundreds of dollars in cash.

@LilacCityMomma I know, right!? I don't understand some people
All that for only.. 'hundreds' of dollars' .... yeah.... these druggie parents likely referring to the treatment for the costs of their stupid addiction troubles... I mean sheesh if I were to rob a bank I would be getting way more than hundreds of dollars for the effort... but ... darn me I work for my money and don't spend more than I got! .... So I don't need to do such a STUPID THING... hope the kids are taken away and these POS never see their kids again!...and for heaven sake MAKE THEM BOTH STERILE!
I like how they explained how Tooele is pronounced. And seriously, who still robs banks? This isn't 1936. They got "hundreds of dollars?" WOW!!!!! Medically-speaking, that'll pay for a couple visits to the dentist, but not much else. Or, maybe their "medical" bills involve purchasing methamphetamine on a regular basis.
The family that preys together ... Well, let's hop they find a way to create a better life for all of their benefits.
Good job, now two more kids will be placed in the system! :(
Glad they got in a good family bonding session before heading to jail.Â
Another shining example of asinine parenting!
Well at least they're spending family time together. ;)
Raising Arizona!
Wow, for hundreds of dollars they brought their children along while they committed a felony crime. They sold themselves cheap on this one.
Trying to bring the kids into the family business?? I'm curious.... do either one of these parents have a job or have even looked for one? Do they spend their money on drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes instead of rent?Â
You can't fix stupid.Â
