Violent acts infrequent in CU robberies

WASHINGTON (7/8/09)--The run-of-the-mill robbery in financial institutions last year did not involve acts of violence, according to crime statistics released Monday by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

Acts of violence were committed in 293 reported incidents--roughly 4% of the 6,849 total robberies, burglaries and larcenies that credit unions and other financial institutions experienced last year.
