In a bank robbery, which sounds more like a Hollywood plot, a bank robber wearing a dust mask ripped off an armored truck and got away using unsuspecting decoys, which he employed on Craigslist. The robber walked up to an armored truck guard outside a Bank of America branch and sprayed pepper spray on the guard and ran away with bag full of money.

The robber setup dozens decoys nearby (which he recruited on Craigslist) to divert anybody who tried to follow his trail. The robber posted an ad for road maintenance project in Monroe, and offered a wage of $28.50 an hour. He instructed them to meet near the Bank of America, Monroe at 11 am on Tuesday wearing certain work clothing. Clever!
