Police in Columbus are looking for a man they say robbed a bank near downtown, then handed two $100 bills to passers-by as he ran away. FBI Special Agent Harry Trombitas said the man robbed a Huntington Bank branch early on Monday afternoon after showing a teller a gun in his waistband. Trombitas said the man was running up the street when he encountered a mother and daughter window-shopping. The robber stopped and gave them each a $100 bill, assured them it was real, then kept running. Trombitas said the mother and daughter from the Cleveland area were in town for a visit to Ohio State.
"We won't know what he was thinking until we catch him ," an FBI agent tells the Columbus Dispatch. One theory is that the mother had just given a homeless man some money, and authorities say the fleeing robber may have seen it.
