As thrilling as a good bank chase scene is in the movies--a gangster on the run with bags of cash--the reality is these crimes are a real problem. In recent months, there’s been an average of one bank robbery a week in New Hampshire. We’ll find out why and look at new efforts underway to stop these crimes. Laura is joined by Jay Fallon, FBI Agent in New Hampshire, and William Rehder, retired FBI agent and author of "Where the Money Is: True Tales from the Bank Robbery Capital of the World". We will also hear from Jerry Little, President of the New Hampshire Bankers Association.
