Venezuela bank robbers captured!

It had all the hallmarks of a badly written western but at least this one had a happy ending of sorts. Venezuela, not really known for its law and order, had to face a sort of catch - 22 with the bank robbers holding some members of the public as hostage.
In the beginning they managed to take at least 30 hostages but later, released them as a sign of good faith. In the closing chapters of this episode, they took five hostages with them and fled away in an ambulance. of all the escape vehicles, this was one of the dumbest ones that they could have used. Instead of using a vehicle that would easily meld into the background, they went and chose one which was sure to stand out even in a car rally. Anyway on being surrounded, these mentally incapacitated bank robbers surrendered having at last discovered that 'Crime does not pay'.
