N.C. bank robbers get their own Web site

Quote :

"RALEIGH, N.C. — Federal investigators are profiling bank robbers by giving them an online identity. The FBI and the North Carolina Bankers Association plan to unveil a Web site Tuesday morning that will include photographs and information about bank robbers. It's designed to generate information about the cases, and officials hope it will help reduce bank robberies in the state. The bankers association said there were 124 bank robberies in North Carolina this year through the month of September. There were 222 bank robberies in 2008."

well thats descriptive. That could only possibly match every middle aged redneck in the state.
