Gotta be aware of your surroundings

DES MOINES, Iowa (WHO) — Police in Iowa arrested one of the men they say was responsible for a terrifying robbery of a woman who had just won a significant amount of money at Prairie Meadows Casino.

The victim won two jackpots at the casino totaling more than $10,000, Sgt. Paul Parizek of the Des Moines Police Department said. She was driving home early Tuesday morning when her car was forced off the road by two vehicles.

  3. Most robberies like this can be traced right back to the casino (or bank) employees. At the bank, I usually stop at the door, turn around, and scan the clerks to see who's on the phone texting.

  4. Small town bank; everyone working there knows us.
    Also know we're armed to the teeth.
