The juveniles, ages 11, 12 and 16, were caught on camera robbing a Wells Fargo bank March 14, the FBI said.

Three boys dubbed the "little rascals" for allegedly robbing a Texas bank were behind bars Thursday, the FBI said.

The juveniles, ages 11, 12 and 16, have each been charged with robbery by threat, a spokesperson for the Harris County Sheriff's Office in Houston said in an email.

"Because they are juveniles, their names, and no additional details will be released," the spokesperson said.

Do banks in USA still have money? Banks here haven't had money for more than a decade now. And I can't remember when we last had a bank robbery in Denmark. ( Country of 6 mil. people )

PS: I looked up the stats:
We used to statistically have about one a week, until about 2012. Then it dropped to only about 5 per year, and now it's almost completely gone, probably only people who are mentally ill, and don't have a clue about anything in general, maybe people with dementia? Because they are AFAIK 100% sure to get nothing.

PPS: If you want to withdraw money, you use the ATM inside the bank, and it's practically illegal to withdraw or deposit more than the equivalent of $7000 USD, if you do, it will be investigated for possible money laundering.
