You really have a nice clear view of his face. This guy either did not care or did not know he was being taped. Hopefully, someone will turn him in!

Ah, he's not really a violent armed robber, he's just a misadjusted youth, trying to better himself artistically.
Please send his name and booking number to Minister Tony when he finally gets pinched for his 'outburst'.
He'll be a great community antagonist, er, I mean activist in the future.
