A man robbed a post office in Yokohama of one million yen on Monday, police said. Nobody was hurt in the incident that occurred at a post office in Tsuzuki Ward just after 9 a.m.
According to police, the post office had just opened when a man entered, brandishing what appeared to be a handgun, Fuji TV reported. He ordered the employee at the counter to hand over money from the machine beside him. The man put the money in a bag and fled the store. He was seen riding away on a white motorbike.
The suspect is described as being of average height and medium build, and was wearing black.

With that description, I’m sure he’ll be caught in no time.

With that description, it could have been me!

Wait - was he, or wasn't he, wearing a surgical mask? That could be the clincher to pinpoint this ne'erdowell.

He was just getting a refund of the premiums for all the bogus insurance policies they opened in his name.

Yeah, and me too. Except I don't have a white motorbike, and I don't rob post offices!

That sounds like a bull crap description to me ( average height and medium build, and was wearing black ) that could be 90% of the guys in the streets during this time of year..... So this guy needed some New Years money & he knew where to go for it. Inside job ??? former post office employee ??? Who knows ...

He will be captured shortly. There are so many cameras in the JP Bank. Maybe all he really wanted was three Hots and a cot for the winter.

I'm sure if we ask the culprit, he would say he didn't rob post offices either! ;-)
