The crime of stealing from a bank (or comparable venue) by physically gaining
entry to its facilities and unlawfully removing large amounts of money or
valuables, is featured. Bank-like outfits include other venues that have
vaults, for example casinos or Fort Knox.
Notes:
In real life most bank robberies are made at gunpoint, i.e., by threatening
bank employees with violence. In fiction (more than reality) there are
sometimes clever schemes to gain entry clandestinely, for example by tunneling
in during off-hours, or using deception. The latter is technically a case of
"burglary" when violence is not used, but is categorized as "bank robbery" for
convenience. This definition may well (and rightly should) be revisited in the
future.
Examples:
In talesoftheunexpected5x06 "The Moles", two old friends whose business faced
financial ruin hatched a clever plan to tunnel their way into a certain bank
vault from an antique shop adjacent to it.
