There’s money to be claimed following a mock bank robbery as part of Redding Rodeo Week. At 8:45AM Tuesday morning the Lone Stranger and Accomplice robbed the Five Star Bank on Hartnell Avenue and, as usual, the Asphalt Cowboys were unable to stop them.
Each reward started Tuesday at $500, and it drops by $100 a day, so they’re now $400 each. Here’s Tuesday’s first clue for finding the loot:
The Stranger and sidekick slipped away with the loot,
And put it where a tree had just taken root.
The spot they decided would be only the best,
And would put would-be finders’ minds to the test.
And here’s Wednesday’s loot clue:
It stayed in its spot undisturbed for yet another day,
While they looked high and low for their chance to get away.
It was not meant to be at a particular height,
Just a place that was not in obvious plain sight.
The loot has instructions with it on how to claim the reward. Here’s Tuesday’s first clue for identifying the Lone Stranger and Accomplice:
This just in: Five Star hit in a robbery today,
By the Lone Stranger and Sidekick, the Cowboys gave chase.
They ran through the town by rail and 44,
Finally held up in a loft and then slammed the door.
And here’s Wednesday’s clue for identifying the Lone Stranger and Accomplice:
They didn’t go far they had much more to do,
What was next on the list for this dastardly duo?
The Posse rode past them, then stopped for a bite,
At a local hall where the food was just right.
If you can identify both of them call 530-223-1188.
