Bank of Montreal robbed
Description
The painted arrows on this photo illustrate the robbers’ dramatic get-away from the bank after escaping with $12,549. The hold-up men ran from the Bank of Montreal branch on Royce Avenue in Toronto and jumped into their waiting car. The car careened around the corner, leaped the curb to nick a pole, and sped north on Symington Ave.
