Inspired by 1990s Hollywood movies, two brothers in Italy donned masks of US President Donald Trump and robbed about 20 cash machines with 100,000 euros in them. The brothers, aged 27 and 31, were arrested on suspicion of robbing around 20 cash machines near the northern Italian city of Turin, The Local reported. They managed to raid the machines of 100,000 euros during the heists, it said.
In CCTV footage of the robberies, one of the brothers can be seen covering the CCTV camera in a bank lobby and planting an explosive in the cash dispenser.
He then ducks out of the way after lighting the fuse, causing a blast, according to Italian daily La Stampa.
The robberies resembled scenes from the 1991 film 'Point Break', starring Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze, in which a gang of surfers rob banks while wearing masks of former US presidents.
