Gothamist Newsmap via Breaking News Network reported a call regarding a bank robbery at the Chase Bank on Montague Street yesterday afternoon. No other information is available.

    Yeah, I noticed this last night as well, and was surprised that Gothamist was the only entity to report on it. *scratches head*

    One thing I did also note, however, was another, concurrent but discrepant report about a situation at Montague Chase Bank, on that very same map (if you click the MNS link at top to switch sources):

    Suspicious-package
    Court St & Montague St
    Brooklyn, NY
    3/9/2007 2:57 p.m.
    BROOKLYN *SUSPICIOUS-PACKAGE* COURT ST & MONTAGUE ST (84-PCT) BOMB SQUAD REQUESTED TO INVESTIGATE A POSS EXPLOSIVE DEVICE IN THE CHASE BANK AT THE LOCATION. FDNY & EMS TO STAGE * 14:55:54 [MNS106]

    So, erm…which was it?

    Bank robbery or suspicious package?

    No idea, personally, since absolutely no one (aside from simple one-liner on Gothamist) has picked up the story.

    No idea, personally.

    Can I git a witness?

    ;)

    And does anyone know what those news sources are?
    (“BNN” and “MNS” on the Gothamist map)

    Gothamist provides absolutely zero info about the two acronyms, leaving me guessing at possible names.

    Muppet Neighborhood Network probably isn’t one.

    Okay, I am an eediot (beyond holding an entire conversation with myself).

    Looking under the map, there is a link to Breaking News Network:

    I really need to get outside.

    Another CHASE robbery? The Chase on Court and Schermerhorn was robbed yesterday as well. This is the new Chase branch that opened not too long ago and is located across the street from the movie theater (Court Street Stadium 12).
