First ever bank robbery on Svalbard fails spectacularly
An armed man has robbed a bank in the world's northernmost settlement on Norway's remote Arctic archipelago of Svalbard but he was caught shortly afterwards, authorities said on Friday.
The heist was the first ever bank robbery in living memory in the territory, which is located in the Arctic Ocean, about halfway between continental Norway and the North Pole.
First ever Arctic bank robber gets caught cold

The man in question obviously forgot 1) Svalbard is an archipelago, far from mainland Norway, 2) The only way to get away from Svalbard is by plane, and 3) Longyearbyen is, like, one tiny street and everybody knows everybody.
