Lemonade Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 BBC NEWS | Scotland | North East/N Isles | Hotel robbery manhunt under wayThe guy robbed the nightshift staff, presumably with a weapon of some sort. Pretty scary like, I used to work nightshift at the Holiday Inn in Bridge of Don and often you'd be there at night all by yourself with all the day's takings in the safe and all manner of dodgers would be coming and going at all hours of the night. Hotels aren't very secure, there are so many exits and windows people can get in. One hotel in the city got robbed a couple of years ago and they tied the night porter up and locked him in a freezer. He was stuck in there until the breakfast chefs came in to work and found him hours later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
