On The Run: The Whiskey Robber

Overview

Daring and dangerous, Attila Ambrus won the hearts of the Hungarian people when he became the country's most famous bank-robbing, hockey-playing heartthrob. In 1993, Ambrus robbed his first bank in Hungary and by the time he was first arrested in 1999, he had robbed 29 banks and stolen nearly US $1-million - remarkably, robbing one state bank four times!
