U.S. currency is changing, and the new $5 bill has some light purple on it. But some bills floating around Mount Pleasant may have even more than that: the money was taken Monday in a bank robbery and then stained when a dye pack exploded.
Mount Pleasant Police responded to a robbery this morning at the Guaranty Bank, 6031 Regency West Drive. According to the police, "a female/black suspect implied she had a weapon" and got away with some money. But a dye pack exploded.
The suspect got away in a car driven by a second woman, who later turned herself in to the Racine Police and was not charged with anything. Angie V. Ford, 44, of Racine was subsequently arrested for robbery.
But more about that stained money: "It is believed that some of the money from the robbery had been either dropped or lost from the suspect auto, near the bank, and may still be stained from the dye pack explosion. Anyone locating any of the money, or any witnesses to this incident are asked to contact the Mt. Pleasant Police Department Investigative Bureau, 884-0454."
Finders, keepers? Not hardly.
