Tech Effect: Hollywood Bank Shootout
Tuesday at 9pm
On February 28, 1997, two heavily armed men attempted to rob a Bank of America branch in North Hollywood, California. Police officers on routine patrol disrupted the carefully plotted plan when they spotted the suspicious men entering the bank and heard gunshots. Reinforcements were called in and for 45 minutes, the streets were a vicious battleground. The suspects had police outgunned--three AK-47s, an M16, an HK 91 sniper rifle, two handguns, and 3,000 rounds of ammo--until the SWAT team arrived.

They keep saying only two men robbed the bank So two men had 4 guns plus like 12 drums of ammo?

The M16 was actually a Bushmaster XM15E2 IIRC converted to full auto.

They also had the AKs, the HK91, and Glocks.

And they sure missed a lot.
