Your description sounds like he robbed the bank to me.
- awb 4y agoI think the point you’re making is that he used violence to coerce the bank. To OP’s point, he was only asking for his own money back, whereas a robbery is trying to take someone else’s money. I guess it all depends on the bank agreement and procedures during a bank run or a default. Sure, you get a statement that says you’re credited with $210k, but you don’t actually own that much money anymore if the bank lost some of it and can’t pay everyone their full balance.
- ClumsyPilot 4y agorobbery means your are taking something that doesn't belong to you. So the bank has robbed him.
- mongol 4y agoRobbery also includes threat of violence, or actual violence.
- Broken_Hippo 4y agoIt doesn't Have to include threats of violence or acts of violence: It simply usually does. It does Always include theft of goods, though. This man wasn't stealing things, but rather trying to get his own cash. Despite the violence, this wasn't robbery.
- ClumsyPilot 4y agoso does assault and battery, but they are both separate and distinct offenses
- quickthrower2 4y agoCloser: The bank is insolvent.
