Video: Couple Kisses Throughout Robbery At Montana Casino

Sometimes, love becomes blind to everything around. This was proved in a casino in Billings, Mont. Three armed robbers burst into the scene and looked for a hefty booty. That was when one couple in deep love just dipped into a liplock and kept kissing throughout, blissfully unaware of the heist

It was an event captured on video Monday when two men and a woman with bandannas and gloves burst into the Tap Inn asking for money. The surveillance TV shows that the bartender briefly brought down his right arm to open the register and then put up his hands again into the air, just like everyone else around him.

Amazingly, the kissing couple  just hugged each other tight on the very counter from where the robbers took money from the register. The couple just went on kissing.

It was a great show but didn't mean anything to the robbers, who just went on robbing the register.

The couple looked up  only when the robbers finished their heist and began to run with the money. Later, the bartender dialled the police, which is now searching for the suspects.

Monday's robbery was the second of three within 24 hours. The first one happened on Sunday afternoon at Casino Royale on Central Avenue, while the third was several hours after the Tap Inn robbery when a man tried a heist at the Blue Basket convenience store in Billings Heights.

While many suspects are believed to have a link, not all the robbers are thought to be in the network. "Most definitely there are common M.O.'s...with some of those going as far back as last year," BPD Chief Rich St. John said.
