Four people were arrested in connection with an organized “bank jugging” operation in San Bernardino County after investigators were able to piece together surveillance footage capturing the crime, officials announced.
Officers with the Chino Police Department responded to reports of the Oct. 10 incident after the victim, who had just come from withdrawing cash at a nearby bank, had the money snatched right out of his back pocket.
Bank jugging is a term used to describe a crime of opportunity where thieves watch for victims leaving banks or ATMs with cash and then find an opening to steal the money.
Authorities did not say exactly where the crime unfolded, but in surveillance footage released by police, the victim is seen driving away from the bank as two suspect vehicles follow a short distance behind.
