ALBUQUERQUE NM NEWS -- In a wild wild west takeover style robbery, two armed men robbed the Bank of the Southwest, at 605 North Waters St., Las Cruces, New Mexico. With faces covered by bandanas, both men burst into the bank armed with semi-automatic weapons. The first robber held one teller at gunpoint while the second subject leapt onto the counter and demanded a second teller fill a black athletic bag with cash.
