As if being robbed was not bad enough
Defiant robbers taunt couple: Go ahead, call police
April 29, 2006
GO on, take a good look at our faces.
Go on, remember our handphone numbers.
Go on, call the police.
That was how a trio of cocky robbers goaded a terrified couple they forced off the road and robbed in Selangor on Sunday.
Unlike most bandits who don masks to conceal their identities, these gangsters acted like they had nothing to hide, reported China Press.
A couple were driving to a store on Sunday morning when they passed a car parked by the side of the road.
Soon after, they noticed that the same car was following them.
The husband drove faster in a bid to shake it off.
But the car behind sped up, overtook them and suddenly swerved in front to block their way.
In his bid to avoid the car, the husband tried to reverse and skidded off the road, trapping the car in mud.
Two robbers armed with parangs then leapt out of the other car and ordered the couple to hand over their cash and valuables, including the man's ATM card.
When the husband refused to tell them the PIN number, they made a chopping motion and he gave in.
The robbers then took the couple to an abandoned house where two stood guard while the third went to withdraw money.
He returned 15 minutes later with RM2,000 ($870).
As the trio left, one of the robbers taunted the couple to remember the way they looked, and even listed a few handphone numbers.
He said they should memorise the numbers and go call the police.
Their victims did exactly as they were instructed.
They made a police report as soon as the robbers left and were able to recall the handphone numbers.
However, at press time, the police had been unable to locate the men.
The couple lost a total of RM3,000.
Their ordeal was one of five car ambushes in Selangor over the past week.
In each case, the victims were stopped while driving and had their valuables taken. -
the people there sucks

i guess police in USA aren't much better either. Never forget that case in hollywood, where 2 men armed with AK-47s with HV armour piercing rounds, body armour, and a high munitions capacity held up a bank, and then nonchantly had a shoot out with police. Police standard issue handguns couldn't penetrate the robbers' body armour and the robbers didn't even need to take cover. Their AKs with HV AP rounds totally rendered whatever little cover the cops had useless. I remember the newsreel, the terrified faces of those cops who suddenly realised the brick building they were hiding around the corner from the robbers, was useless, as HV AP rounds tore thru the brick like butter. In the end they needed to go to this civilian gun store and borrow 5 semi auto civilian version M16s to have a chance of penetrating the robbers' body armour. Luckily nobody was killed, but it took a few hours before the robbers surrendered(because they ran out of ammo)

Yeah.. I saw the video footage...
The Robbers looked like RobotCop in Black.. and was walking(Strolling) along and in the middle of the road. Bullets can be seen hitting them... apparently with no regards. WTF.. it was crazy ... yet I do envy them. -
i guess next time a car swerves in front of you in malaysia, you should ram the accelerator instead of swerving away

that was seriously something to watch. I have to say, it must have been fun for the robbers while it lasted.Originally posted by MobyDog:Yeah.. I saw the video footage...

It was a long time ago... few years back.Originally posted by alexkusu:wah..where is the vid now? issit on youtube?
But I have to tell you.. it was 15 mins long. These guys were just strolling in the middle of the street, as the dumb cops behind their squad cars shooting them up... bullets kept hitting them... you can actually see the impact here and there.. like nothing wrong.
Even their legs were thick with armor and they were wearing kevla helmets too... they are very heavily armed and was shooting automatic fires to the right then to the left... WTF.. like some holiwood movie. -

You just have to be extra careful when you are there. -
Yea i watched that before, those cops sucks. The gunman were like happily strolling right in the middle of the fire fight. If i'm not wrong they only took cover when snipers were called in.
