(12/31/02 - PLYMOUTH, Mass.) — The fare seemed unusual to the cab driver only because of the tip _ $5 for a $7 ride from the bus station to a local bank to downtown.
Only later did the driver she was the unwitting getaway driver in a bank robbery.
"As far as I know, (the suspect) was very calm and cool," Patriot Taxi cab company owner Timothy Cushman told The Enterprise of Brockton, adding that the $5 tip was the most notable detail.
"Not bad for a $7 call," he said.
Police said the robber made off with a "substantial amount of cash" from a Citizens Bank branch. The driver was unharmed and "had no clue whatsoever" about the robbery until police called a half-hour later, Cushman said.
