After an attempted robbery at Banco Popular on 111th and Broadway this afternoon, much of the block as been blocked off. We’ll update you as we get more information.
@uhm... “Banco Popular is a major bank and a respectable financial institution. The bank has a footprint in major US cities, including a decent number of locations in the US along with locations elsewhere in the world. Furthermore, it was named by forbes as one of the 400 best companies to work for. Get your facts straight before posting such and idiotic and racist comment. Just because a bank is from a Spanish-speaking nation does not make it a bad financial institution. If you are insulting its origins, you are actually insulting your own country seeing that PR is a US territory.”
@`ya “joke is not funny at all. i bank there. stop being an asshole.”
Jokes on you for banking at this bank lol….who does that?
I mean at least do TD Bank or something more respectable

@TD Bank? TD Bank only gives out Canadian dollars, better known as “Loonies”. Banker beware.
@Yay! Loonies rock my world. Go TD Bank!

I am sorry someone stole your monies :(
Might I recommend my bank of choice: Chase.
