New York - A toothless woman arrested for allegedly robbing a US bank told police she did it because she needed money to buy false teeth, a report has said.
According to orange news, police said the 49-year-old woman was captured on CCTV robbing the bank in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania.
She appeared to have no teeth in the video and reportedly told police officers that was her motive for the crime.
Waynesburg patrolman Tom Ankrom said: “During her confession, she stated she wanted to use the money to pay for dentures she was unable to get through welfare until next year.”
Police allege the woman handed a cashier a note asking for a specific amount of cash. The note also said she had a gun and warned the teller not to call police.
But one of the employees of the bank thought she recognised the robber as someone from her church and gave police her name and she was later arrested, the report said. - IOL

It's very sad.More than 60% of the Terra population are living in poor conditions.The governments cannot afford to look after the poor,because our planet is over populated and too many people with no jobs, food and a place to sleep.How will be in about 20 years from now when the Earth population will be close to 10 billion people? I don't want to think how many people will suffer.
