When cell phones are outlawed, only outlaws will have cell phones
Here's another reason to ban cell phones in the bank:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The FBI on Tuesday arrested a 19-year-old woman suspected of robbing four Virginia banks while apparently talking on her cell phone, local media said.
Candice R. Martinez was captured at 3:40 a.m. in Centreville, Virginia, after an FBI agent spotted a car linked to the Washington-area robberies, FBI spokeswoman Debbie Weirman told a CBS television affiliate.
The young woman who robbed the banks was filmed by security cameras casually walking up to the teller and handing over a note while holding a cell phone to her ear the whole time.

This item somehow warranted being reported on last night's 10 PM "newscast" on Channel 7. Yes, bank robberies in Virginia. Quite important to us here in Chicago.
