He most likely chose the Holcombe bank because he knew he'd be able to get away with it.

I'm think probably because of how rural it is. It is in Chippewa County's jurisdiction, and if they are driving from the southern part of the county, it's a quick get away. However, whether it is a rural or city area, it is still a pretty stupid idea.

I just have one question. If you are going to rob a bank, why the Holcombe bank? That's like a car thief stealing a Geo Metro.

"He was last seen on County Highway EE south of Highway Z" i really don't understand this comment. County hwy EE is on the east side of town and highway Z is on the west side of town.... just really wonder how they lost him......
