Third robbery in a week hits Corvallis

An armed robbery was reported around 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at Pilos Mexican Bakery, 954 Circle Blvd.

[...]

The robbery was the third in Corvallis in a week.

On Dec. 4, a man robbed Washington Federal Savings at 1111 N.W. Ninth St. at 3:30 p.m. Thursday. Two days before, just before 5 p.m., a woman robbed Key Bank at 1817 N.W. Ninth St.

In both bank robberies, the robbers displayed a demand note and left with undisclosed amounts of money.

The man in Thursday’s bank robbery was described as a white male in his 50s, between 5-feet-6-inches and 5-feet-7-inches tall with a medium build and a large nose. He might also have been wearing a long-haired gray wig, but that had not been confirmed. He escaped on a bicycle.

The woman in the Dec. 2 robbery was described as 5-feet-4-inches to 5-feet-6-inches tall with a medium-to-heavy build. She fled the scene on foot, wearing a dark cap with a light bill and dark blue zip-up coat with a red undershirt. Corvallis Gazette-Times Link

All of these robberies have occurred within a mile of my home. Since we have so many excellent role models to show us how to behave this might be an everyday occurence soon.
