Christopher Castillo had the wine in his hand when he asked them to stop in front of the bank. His date thought he wanted to run a quick errand. What followed was an armed robbery of 1,000 dollars from the Bristol County Savings Bank in North Attleboro, Massachusetts.

She had picked him up that same day at his parents’ house in Chepachet, Rhode Island, after connecting on a dating app. Thirty minutes on the road, some wine, and a normal conversation… until Castillo came running out of the bank with the cash and ordered her to drive. She panicked and obeyed.

As soon as she saw the police lights, she slammed on the brakes, got out of the car, and walked away. Investigators confirmed that she knew nothing about the plan and was never charged. Castillo, on the other hand, resisted arrest, spat at the officers, and ended up being sentenced to five years for armed robbery. First, last, and only date. 🚔
