Robber, 91, admits third bank job
A 91-year-old man has admitted stealing $1,999 from a bank in Texas, his third robbery in five years.

JL Hunter "Red" Rountree faces a maximum 20-year sentence if convicted of robbing the Texan bank on 12 August.


When asked how he pleaded, Mr Rountree initially responded "not guilty" but then changed his reply to "guilty". A sentencing date has not been set.


Mr Rountree is said to have carried out three bank robberies since 1998 as revenge after he was made bankrupt.

2. Mr. Rountee should meet the eldery husband and wife team in Missouri
Actually the husband died, and the wife she may still be alive.
