And rob it.
The Oregonian newspaper in Portland reports the 37-year-old mom was right on time to pick up the kids, but not before she dropped by the Umpqua Bank at 2:15 p.m. and passed the teller a note demanding cash.
Police tell The Oregonian she and alleged getaway car driver, 19-year-old Joshua Kemp Deeter Tseu of Grants Pass, simply continued on to pick up her two daughters at Highland Elementary School.
Witnesses gave police a description of the car and the license plate number. Given this rather large trail of bread crumbs, police easily tracked the car down to Anderson's home where she returned after picking up her kids.
According to The Oregonian, Anderson and Tseu face charges of second-degree robbery and first-degree theft. Anderson's two daughters were reportedly turned over to the Oregon Department of Human Services.

Bobby said...Creative minds need not apply. Why didn't she just hand the teller her driver's license, address & a blood sample? This smacks of short sighted desperation. DUMB!

Fujimooji said...It's funny! Belongs on an episode of Stupid Criminals. Know what is really stupid. The banks that install bullet proof plexiglas to separate customers from tellers. So that is supposed to stop bank robbers! What about the bank employees on the outside of the plexiglas? So, a robber grabs an employee or customer, puts a gun to his head and demands a sack of money. What is the bank going to do . . . sacrifice a few employees or customers for a few thousand dollars? Jus sayin . . .
