It had a fun trip from AZ to my home and was delivered by, Jazuars96, SEEK84 and LifeisGuud. Thank you all for your hand in getting this cache here. And a special thanks to JustFindingOurWay for the nicely done cache and the fun we had in Mesa, AZ.

The Gilby bank was robbed twice,  1983 and 2009.

In 1983 a robber came into the bank and yelled stickem Up, this is a bank robbery. Now, everyone get Down on the floor. He ordered a one cashier to stay Right there and start filling Up the bags with cache. Right after he left the bank, the fire chief took off after him and stayed right on his tail. During the pursuit they called the Sheriff to alert them of the theft. The Officer arrived and was able to stop the suspect. He yelled at the robber to keep your hands right where I can see them and exit the vehicle. The suspect got out and was ordered down on the ground. He was placed in hand cuffs and locked up. He was caught, but the cache was never found. See if you can find it and receive the reward of a smiley.
