Robber killed in Rab 'gunfight'
2013-01-23
[Bangla Daily Star] A robber was killed in a "shootout" with Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) at the Sundarbans of Bagerhat yesterday (Tuesday) morning.

The dead was identified as Zakir Hossain alias Chhoto, 38, leader of robber gang Chhoto Bahini.

The elite force also recovered six foreign-made firearms, 43 bullets, 13 cartridges and a huge amount of foods, said Maj Sabbir Rahman Osmani, deputy commander of Rab-8.
Sounds like they were knocking over local convenience stores...
The Hamburglars...
Alas no shutter gun, but the RAB recovered a 'huge amount of foods', which I take (from the plural) to be more than a single breath mint...

#3  Yeah, lacking a little drama, Muggsy. But on the other hand, in addition to the "huge amount of food", they recovered 43 round of bullet, which for Bangla is a virtual ammo dump.

#2  No 2am patrol? No spidey senses tingling, leading to a shoot-out with miscreants? NO SHUTTER GUN?

I'm depressed.
