In today's headlines: Another crime is live-streamed on Facebook, a klepto gets 20 years for taking remote controls, and a naked man shaves on a train...
Miami, FL- Police are investigating a bank robbery that was streamed on Facebook Live.
A user posted three videos to Facebook around 5 p.m. Monday.
The first clip shows the man in a suit receiving what appears to be a pink envelope. The next two videos show two men inside a car, with one of them claiming the other has a bomb. Witnesses say the man in the suit got on top of the car and started handing out the money to strangers!

Seriously...didn't we JUST talk about this last week?
Chicago, IL- A man has just been sentenced to more than 20 years in prison, for stealing a TV remote.
35-year-old Eric Bramwell stole the remote from an apartment complex in nearby Wheaton, dropping a glove on his way out. His DNA was a match in the state's database for convicted felons. Bramwell has a history of remote theft, allegedly committing the same crime in SIX different Chicago suburbs.
Last week, a judged sentenced him to 22 YEARS in prison for repeatedly "thumbing his nose at the law." [Chicago Tribune]
If you're gonna be a thief...at least steal something cool, like a car. Or a helicopter. Or Kim Kardashian's jewelry.
Germany- A 22-year-old guy took manscaping to a completely new level.
The man was caught shaving his hair DOWN THERE with a knife...while in the bathroom of a MOVING TRAIN!
The conductor noticed the passenger in the bathroom for a very long time and became worried, so she opened the door and spotted the man "as God had created him." She called police, who saw him--grooming--with a kitchen knife. Interestingly, he wasn't arrested for the act itself...but for being on the train without a ticket. [The Local]
It takes stones to do what this guy did, and he almost lost them in the process...
