Robber, robs bank with a taxi



A robber got a taxi to wait for him while he nipped into a bank to hold it up.


The thief then made his getaway in the cab with thousands of pounds stuffed in a Tesco bag.

Police said no weapon was used in yesterday’s raid on a branch of RBS.


And they do not believe the driver knew anything about the robbery.

Det Insp Rory Hamilton said: “It would not be unusual for a taxi to be asked to wait outside a bank. But we now need the driver to get in touch with us.”

Police hope to find CCTV images that will identify the beanie-hatted, 6ft 4in robber who held up the bank in Edinburgh.
