Man arrested after one-minute bank robbery in Da Nang


A man believed to have robbed a VietinBank branch in Da Nang’s Hai Chau District in one minute was arrested Friday night after 35 hours on the run.

Le Phu Cao, 32, was arrested when hiding in the city’s Lien Chieu District.

He is accused of robbing more than VND600 million (US$25,540) from the bank.

Da Nang police said he remained silent at first but later agreed to tell police where he hid the money.

According to the police, Cao used a fake license plate on his motorbike.

Around 11 a.m. on Thursday, he drove the motorbike to the VietinBank branch, rushed inside and closed the roller door behind him.

There were five bank staff and a guard at the bank.

A security guard said the robber wore black clothes, with a gun in one hand and an electric baton in the other. He threatened the guard, then requested employees to put money inside plastic bags.

The entire ordeal happened within around a minute.

No one was harmed during the robbery.

The bank where he robbed is in downtown Da Nang, 800m from the headquarters of the city’s police department.
