A
bank robber in Virginia Beach Virginia, USA got a nasty surprise when a
dye pack designed to mark stolen money exploded in his trousers. The robber apparently stuffed the loot down the front of his pants as he was running out the door.
A police spokesman informed that 'He was seen hopping and jumping around with an explosion taking place inside his pants.'
Police have the man's charred trousers safely in custody!
