Bank of America was robbed. I thought the red was blood but of course it's from the ink packet hidden inside the bill fold. When the ink pack exploded the stack of 20s were abandoned on the sidewalk.

we have packs like that in our tills, i actually never asked why, i presumed they were to give to would be robbers with the rest of the cash to help catch them. i never realised they were that damaging when they went off.

This a cool shot! I like the emotional "charge" of the "do not cross" yellow tape and the redness of the exploded money!
