    The meat shield case might not be the ideal moment for local PD to be throwing stones.....

    Hobbs Act, as others have mentioned. We always had 2, sometimes 3, FBI attached to my old office. Any serial business robbers were potential targets (if an adult and armed), which was generally considered to be 3+ armed robberies. Several of the covert guys also because TFOs. They've been involved in surveillance and take-downs with us, including pursuits.

    Bank robberies fall under FBI regardless. We didn't even go out on them, just the FBI and/or TFO.
    Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.

    The perps were dressed as US Postal service so there may be additional grounds for the FBI's involvement.

    I've always said that when the police start yelling "get down" at a suspect that it is good advice for eveyone in the area.

    Most recent media reports indicating this; suspects were already wanted for at least two other similar heists in the Miami area.
    Hain’t we got all the fools in town on our side? And ain’t that a big enough majority in any town?
