A Wearing Straw Hat Man Stealing 500,000 RMB from Bank ATM Machine in China

Translation and summary of the Chinese in the above video:

The bank burglar is 61-year-old Luo Yuanbing, an illiterate rural farmer in Guangan of Sichuan province who has often been punished by authorities for stealing before. The surveillance camera footage shows that at 2:25am in the early morning of 2010 July 18th, Luo entered a self-help bank (a branch with ATM machines) three times, wearing a straw hat. Within 30 seconds, he has pried open the metal rolling door beside the ATM machines.

Minutes later at 2:37am, he is recorded entering the back room where the ATM machines are filled with cash for the first time. He inspects the machines but at 2:38am, he leaves the room for a moment but very quickly returns, this time holding a vegetable knife/cleaver. At 2:41, the bank's alarm suddenly sounds.



At 3:47am, the man in the straw hat enters the cash refilling back room again, this time with a few more items including an umbrella, basket, and a bag. In addition to his crow bar and vegetable knife, this time he even uses a pair of pliers but is still unable to open the cash machines.

At 4:07am, the straw hat bank thief tries to open the other machine, and successfully opens it in 10 minutes. After stuffing the cash into his bag, he leaves the self-help bank at 4:19am.



The rest of the video shows the Luo Yuanbing explaining how he determined that there was money to steal from the ATM machines and that he had buried the stolen money in a high pressure cooker pot in a pond at home. He had stolen over 500,000 RMB but 379,700 was counted of the money recovered.
