POSTED: 1:01 pm CDT August 4, 2004 UPDATED: 1:22 pm CDT August 4, 2004
DAVENPORT, Iowa -- A television station is reporting three bank robberies happened about the same time President George W. Bush and Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry were speaking at separate venues in Davenport Wednesday morning.
WQAD television station, located in the Quad Cities, reported the first robbery happened at the First National Bank. The names of the other two banks weren't immediately available.
Davenport police say they could not comment and were helping to direct the political leaders' motorcades.
It is not known if the bank robberies are connected.
Bush's fault.
Sounds like the Clintons were in town.
Kerry actually changed his schedule just to be on at the same time as Bush in this town. It probably strained their resources more than they could handle.
An unintended consequence of Kerry's immature stunt.
Yeah but tomorrow the papers will say it is Bush's fault.
That explains the lower attendance at the Kerry rally!
