Bank Robbery Disrupts My Coffee Time
July 1st, 2008 | by Mike G |
Seattle Police stated the robbery happened around 10:10 a.m. at a Wells
Fargo Bank in the 2300 block of California Avenue in West Seattle.
The FBI says one man wearing a black dress and a wig and carrying a gun
jumped the counter. He took off to a waiting gold SUV with a driver and
they took off across the West Seattle Bridge.
Police began pursuing the SUV across the bridge all the way to Capitol
Hill then back towards downtown. At First Avenue and Yesler Street, the
man in the dress bailed out but was arrested after a short pursuit on
foot.
The driver continued to the 100 block of Spring Street where the standoff ensued and was later taken into custody.
Spring Street was closed between the waterfront and Fifth Avenue.

He wore a black dress while robbing a bank? No wonder he didn’t get away. There is a reason women abandoned dresses for pants.
