Robbery In Progress At JPMorgan Chase Branch On Columbus And 72nd In New York
Just out from the NY Scanner:
Manhattan: 260 Columbus Ave NYPD calling a level 1 Mobilization in regards to a bank robbery at Chase Bank.
— NYC Scanner (@NYScanner) January 6, 2015
This one:
We assume the NYPD will give it the usual ~90 minute "de Blasio buffer" before responding.
What is amazing is that robbers still think JPM Chase actually has cash at its branches, then again we generously assume it is not simply a bank teller taking receipt of a depositor's funds...

All that for some electronic IOUs?
I hope that they're not expecting to see a vault filled with cash.
Was the Corzines ugly mug on the Surveillance video?
Suspect wearing Presidential cufflinks.
pods
I have to admit, I thought the title was a joke....
The theft is always going on...
IT'S THE BLACK SWAN!
Don't panic! All the barbarous relics like the gold are in the biggest most secure safe at the bottom of the basement. They'll probably just give the robbers some FRN notes from the "fake" safe on ground level.
the bank is open each day isnt it?
How much did the bank manager make off with?
Somebody threw money on the ground without paying the fees for having an account.
Well, isn’t that novel.. somebody robbing JPM instead of the other way around.
The worst criminals/robbers are at 33 Liberty, hint, hint.
That's near where they ripped out my stereo out of my car back in 1999. Luckily, I was not in the car that night.
The term robbery is so passe. The correct term is "asset rehypothecation through non-traditional means."
Someone bought their silver short derivitives
The NYPD decided to start working?
JPM's a corporate client.
Business 101: take care of your core clientele.
The thief was surprised to find the gold vault empty.
And gold is going up...hmmm.....
Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank.
Give a man a bank and he can rob the world.
+100
90's - that is hilarious.
That's the best thing I've heard all year!
Give a man the World and all he'll do is rub his gun.
Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank.
Give a man a bank and he can rob the country.
Give a man a central bank and he can rob the entire world
For as long as wars need financing
This can't be good for property values.
I hope the cops get stuck in traffic on the way answering the call.
i hope is not some ZH guy taking matters into his own hands ... it seems that Goldman piece had some meat into it.
Clearly, Martial Law is needed in NYC.
Yes, plus door-to-door SWATsearches for firearms. Krystallnacht in NYC, bitches!
wonder ...
if there is a boat show in NYC today...
this false flag operation was merely designed to demonstrate to the mayor that his men in blue come when jpm summons them
no turning backs
Aren't police badges made of gold (-painted lead)?
Feduciary napkins are FDIC insured.... Right!? RIGHT?? R I G H T ? ? //eyeroll.
Was the robber wearing an Obama mask?
Are we sure it isn't just an account holder trying to do a withdrawl of more than $5,000?
..heh, that happened to me mid 2008; had to wait for, and then convince, a bank manager to allow me to make a withdrawal from a richly flush account. Despite the distinct blackness of the balance I was treated as if I was standing hat in hand, begging, without collateral, for a loan I couldn't afford. After patiently enduring some long-winded spiel about the bank 'not having that kind of cash on hand' I began turning red about the ears, so the bank manager decided that the path of least resistance led him to making good on my withdrawal 'request'; apparently they did, in fact, have 'that kind of cash on hand' after all, they were just reluctant to return it to me. I made a point of emptying all accounts soon thereafter.
I am embarrassed to say that up until that very day I was functioning under the impression that the funds I had stored there were mine.
Lesson learned
Big deal...bank robberies happen every single transaction.
Jamie is really becoming blatant with his tactics. Maybe market manipulation is just too boring.
That's odd, JP is usually doing the robbing...
In Soviet America, bank rob you!
Capitalists living in Soviet America stack metals to rob all banks simultaneously with legitimate perception of tangible wealth.
Probably just a large depositor trying to withdraw their savings.
The only way to get attention and quick response by all tellers. Also avoids nasty paperwork and notice periods, before allowed to withdraw money.
"Probably just a large depositor trying to withdraw their savings."
...and when he demanded a cashiers check, the teller thought he was demanding the cash and called the police.
Suckers. The only way to rob a bank, is to own one.
47 handle on oil. Fuck you, TSLA.
Wait until they find out all the coins are gold painted lead, and the paper IOU's have picture of Yellen on them all!!!!!
I wonder if the NY Cops are turning their backs on this one. I would.
They might NOT want to respond to this one, because if your taking down the JPM in Manhatten, you better be rolling 3-5 deep with fully auto and 10,000 rounds! NYPD is getting taken oiut with 22LR rounds and solo cowboys with pistols!!
Can you imagine how many would be killed or wounded if they faced some serious operators with tactical skills????
Remember the North Hollywood Shootout?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Hollywood_shootout
The North Hollywood shootout was an armed confrontation between two heavily armed and armored bank robbers and officers of the LAPD February 28, 1997. Both robbers were killed, eleven police officers and seven civilians were injured, and numerous vehicles and other property were damaged or destroyed by the nearly 2,000 rounds of ammunition fired by the robbers and police.
and that was 97, can you imagine what the response would be these days?
(because you know there is a plan in place for that)
Don't worry guys, I got this.
Sorry sir, we don't hold cash - only derivatives.
Would you like some Greek CDS'?
I thought the NYPD had stopped chasing criminals out of fear for their lives.

Steal some money. Shoot some bankers. Shoot some cops. This movie is getting good.
I hope the sequel's as good as the original!

(Shootout Scene from the movie Heat)
This is the sequel?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejD1Gml-ZGc (N. Hollywood bank robbery 1997)
HAHAHAHA!!! +1
Now that you mention it, that robbery does seem like the sequel to Heat, which was released in 1995!
At first I was thinking about Clive Owen stealing a bunch of documents on how the Bank financed the Nazis during the 2nd WW with Denzel right on his ass.
That's OK, the taxpayer will pay for the losses.
Somebody heard about the asteroid.
I recommend Preparation-H for that particular problem.
Well, yeah, him too.
Crazy Glue in Jamie's Preparation-H might help him out a lot. He could choke on his own shit.
ROFL
If you wanna guarantee that done right, there's a glue called "Hot Stuff" that's the most amazing stuff I've ever seen. Not cheap tho.
They'll get shot or life in prison over a few hundred bucks and Dimon gets rewarded billions for raping a country. Sounds fair.
bank robbery as bankers taking the savers deposits
So the bail-ins are getting started now huh...
THIS will make the NYPD blue pigs jump to action, right quick!
Too bad NY has such strict gun laws. They would have had him by now or it would have never happened. Then again maybe they'll get a banker.
I wonder what the Suspect's ZH screen name is.
Ummmm buddy . . . . . . . if you're looking for actual cash you'll need to rob the Vatican.
A withdrawl slip is now a deadly weapon
NYC sliding back into pre Jewliani chaos...but still $4000/month for a one bedroom apt, hilarious
I haven't heard from Fonz in a while...... Hmmmmmmm....... I wonder...
If a thief steals from a thief, is it really stealing?
They are about 100 years too late.
Maybe it is a mistake. They are not there to rob the bank, but to hang some banksters. The only way to get the cops to respond was to say the bank was being robbed.
A girl can dream.
"The Jamie" is caught on video camera at that branch making a withdrawal of $200 million just like Hank Paulson did at the Treasury in 2008!
Is this really a breaking headline?
All I see is a different form of strong arm robbery from the one normally taking place in that building. It's probably just some new guy got alarmed by Jamie in his favorite gimp outfit doing a surprise branch inspection anyway.
Rob a bank from the inside, and the government GIVES you money. Rob a bank from the outside, and you're John Dillinger and Osama Bin Laden rolled into one. Go figure.
If it is between 9am and 5pm then there is a robbery in progress at EVERY Chase branch.
expect more and more bank robberies , some sheeple are feeling the heat of this great recovery
Green shoots! Great recovery!
What kind of ammo do you need for green shoots?
A robbery happens every day at JPM.
JPM wealth managers are holding their clients hostage?
Old news.
Was it an agnry mob wielding torches and pitch forks?
Theres been an ongoing robbery since 1913.
You have to be 110% insane to rob a bank in NYC. Where are you going to run to? I hope that they did not steal all of JPM's gold.
It is the principle of the thing!
You don't run, dude. You hide.
You don't run, you truck the gold under another bank and blame radical islam, start a couple wars and rob nations of their gold while you're at it. Duh.
I am afraid that address is incorrect. The correct address is: 270 Park Avenue. Catch the guy with the "presidential" cufflinks.
Turnabout is fair play.
Anglea Merkel checking out with her gold ?
False alarm. It was just the CEO looting the company.
The 3 masked men escaped with 300k unmarked EBT cards.
So, swipe 'n' swipe?
This is the perfect crime....
Hit 'em while the cops have their backs turned....
A 'level 1 mobilization'...? Is there a beachhead landing somewhere that we don't know about...?
The Onion hacked ZH, or was it North Korea?
"It's ok guys," said Jamie Dimon. "Nothing going on here, just doing our monthly audit..." He handed one of the canvas sacks to an officer on his right...
"Be a peach, and load these into the trunk?...Car's right out front. We'll be out of your hair in a few. Thanks guys..."
I wouldn't assume someone walking into a bank with a gun is planning to rob it, but i digress...
The robber said he thought the cops were on stand-down and weren't interested in making any arrests.
Did they run off with a bag of derivatives? Can't be much else in there.
In other news: Jaimie Dimon was seen walking into Starbucks, 72nd St, carrying a large duffel bag...
Pikers
LOL... robbing a bank at gunpoint is so early 20th century...
I tried getting $25k out of my JP Morgan branch a few months ago and was told they couldn't get that much without advance notice/appointment. My response was to get a cashier's check for the ENTIRE balance and take my business elsewhere.
"Some HSBC customers have been prevented from withdrawing large amounts of cash because they could not provide evidence of why they wanted it"
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-25861717
Can't put money in .. can't take it out. Goldbar mattresses coming to the EUSSR soon.
Seriously scary... but this WILL be happening in the US regularly within a few years. FATCA already makes it very difficult. Just wait until SHTF.
Indeed.
I am thinking of setting up a gold remelting shop. Will squeeze myself inbetween HSBC and GOLD4CASH.
Neighbourhood will love me.
Goldman Sachs says JPM should be broken up, then this happens?
The perps should use the "just doing God's work" defense.
With facial and voice recognition, plus the fact there's little currency held in banks, it makes no sense to take money out the front door. Jamie has a course on crowd-sourcing illicit funds through clients of your bank that makes more sense and is actually condoned by the elite. The perps probably didn't go to Harvard or drink blood from a skull so their options were limited (in there defense).
"The robber could never steal, what JP Morgan Chase has stolen from us." --We the People of the United States of America
"bank robbery in progress" heh, i think it have been in progress few hundreds of years
Yeah, but its the banks doing the robbery
It's not the criminals that scare me, it's the over-caffeinated, steroid-addled cops that show up and find a way to make a bad situation worse.
Amateurs...if you rob banks with a pencil...2016 BONUS!
Define Robbery.
Then ask what have these TBTF banksters have done to the plebs via glorious government leaders.
Didn't Police Unions Lose a lot of Money in 2008-2009... and aren't they likely to be invested in Junk Oil & Gas Stocks OR Bonds Now.
Ironic. Police Funds stolen nothing happens. Banks get a robber, police show up right away.
I hear the initial report was called in by a customer.
"Best way to rob a bank is to own one."
Relax -- it's called a 'BAIL-IN TEST'.
Police are looking for a man in green tights that goes by the alias 'Robin'.
Not to worry, Jon Corzine will save the day!
Oh wait, he's the get-away driver?
Someone stupid enough to rob the mob...
If you zoom in you can see the robbery in progress. I think they're using a Google van as a getaway vehicle.
So someone must have made a large deposit.
Robbers steal money from thieves ... something aint right here...
