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.

        In terms of “a taste of their own medicine?” I would say no for the same reason I would say no if, for example, Tim Cook robbed a Wells Fargo. He isn’t the one Wells Fargo is ripping off and neither are those kids.

          Wells Fargo shouldn’t even be allowed to be in business after what they did. Fuck em. You’re focused on the kids and not that mass theft that was systematic

          One of them was 16. Wells Fargo sure loved to charge me massive overdraft fees around that age.
