Prove It

An armed robber came into a bank branch in Germany, and ordered the staff to fill his bag with cash. When bank employees told him there was no cash left in the branch, that they were only cleaning up the left over office equipment and forms, he didn't believe them. Not until they actually showed him the inside of the vault, proving it was empty.

He then fled on foot.
