Washington Post Staff Writer Sunday, July 16, 2006
The gang that carried out a series of commando-style bank robberies in the Washington area two years ago used fully automatic assault rifles that were smuggled from the battlefields of Iraq by a soldier in the U.S. Army Reserve, according to investigators..
In the aftermath of a 2004 bank robbery in Northwest, an unidentified member of the gang carries an AK-47.
The arrests and convictions of eight people in the robberies, including two who became government witnesses, led to the spin-off criminal investigation into how the rifles made their way from Iraq to Washington. No one has been arrested in the weapons case.
Authorities said the weapons were part of a small cache purchased for $5,000 from a gang member's friend, who had recently come back from serving in Iraq

One day in 1997, two professional bank robbers were engaged by patrol cops after their latest job in Los Angeles. Equipped with 40 pounds each of body armor and high-capacity assault rifles, they engaged in a 44-minute firefight with dozens of police officers that led to new standards for how such situations are dealt with they squeezed off hundreds and hundreds of rounds of ammunition. They carried HK-91 (semi-automatic) and AR-15 (fully automatic) assault rifles, and the police simply had no idea how to respond them a trunk full of thousands of rounds and extra weapons and would calmly discard one gun for another when one ran dry.
