What are the most common methods used in bank robberies?

What will be an ideal response?


The most common method of bank robbery is a threat with a visible firearm, most typically a handgun. Most of the remaining robberies are perpetrated with a demand note passed to the teller. In this case, the note can be a valuable piece of evidence if the robber fails to ask for its return. In addition, in the majority of bank robberies the perpetrator acts alone in the facility, but accomplices may be waiting in an escape vehicle outside.
