Edit: I was wrong - no ATM at Bank of America location.

A = Closest McCain Pittsburgh Office

B = Bank of America

C = "Mugging" Location

Hmmm.....

[Cronus Protagonist]

1. I don't understand this

Are you saying something in particular?

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

2. Whoa

I thought the woman said the mugging took place at the ATM, not several blocks away!

[speedoo]

3. Mugging location 5 miles from the ATM?

Where'd you get this info?

If true it's clearly a hoax.

8. According to BOA's own site, there are only a couple of ATM's

in the entire city. So if she was really looking for a BOA ATM, she only had a few options, and she would have driven past one of them to get where she was attacked;



Here's the map the OP talks about;



By the way, the 'B' point on the op's map, is a BOA center, commercial lending only.

12. OK, thanks. But how do we know the mugging location?

Does someone have the police report? Or some other report?

[1corona4u]

14. I think so...let me look....

Story says pearl & liberty st.

[speedoo]

16. That's supposedly the ATM location...

"said that the woman told police she was at a Citizens Bank ATM on Pearl and Liberty ..."

Not a BofA ATM.

edit: I guess the OP is suggesting she drove PAST a B of A ATM?

4. I grew up in PGH and

The Mccain office is in Greentree. She would have to travel the Parkway go through the Fort Pitt Tunnel across the FP Bridge into Downtown, up past the Strip District, into East liberty, not an easy task. All to avoid ATM fees? Something ain't right.

5. Yeah, it smells like fish....

[Ichingcarpenter]

6. I thought it walked like a duck?

I'm getting a lot of animal references going in my mind.

7. K&R Cattledog.....this is what we need to debunk this: cold, hard, on the ground facts!!

[City Lights]

9. No wonder the attack took place out of the view of the bank's surveillance cameras.

So this person supposedly followed her all that way and then attacked her?

:holdsnose:

[1corona4u]

17. She was out bar crawling....here is the area...

P FUCKING S---there is a HOSPITAL not 2 blocks from there, to the right!!!

The tall red building, or the one across from it, on the left, are supposedly the bank...across from the church.... 4701 Liberty.

[Geek_Girl]

10. I read on drudge the police a looking at the video from the ATM

machine that she was allegedly attacked.

[Bucky]

11. Kicking and reccing. I'm not convinced she's lying (lost people do wander far) but...

...By way of giving context to the distance shown by the OP, if you zoom out on the Google Map of those three points, and zoom out so far that you can see a map of all of Pennsylvania and New Jersay, you can still see the distance between these three locations.

[speedoo]

13. The "black eye" is bogus.

No swelling of the eyelids. I've never seen a black eye that did not have swollen eyelids and an eye at least partially closed.

[livetohike]

15. Is she not computer literate? Couldn't she do mapquest to

get herself to the right ATM? There aren't too many BoA ATMs in Pgh. Pittsburgh is hard to find your way if you are unfamiliar with the city, but a simple mapquest search and following the directions will get you where you want to go :shrug:.

18. ATM Google Street View

This is a busy main street! Where was she before she started looking for an ATM???
