NEW YORK (Reuters) - A quick-witted nine-year-old boy thwarted robbers who made it out of his home with $164,000 in cash before they were nabbed by police alerted to the caper by his covert cell phone call.

Shidal Hossain used a blanket to hide a cell phone when the unidentified robbers came to rob his home and then slipped into his bedroom to call his father for help.

Shidal was watching cartoons with his four brothers -- one of them just nine days old -- when the trio of robbers knocked on the door of the family's Brooklyn home on Thursday morning.

Pretending to be building maintenance workers, they persuaded Shidal's 3-year-old brother to open the door before charging in and threatening Shidal's mother and brothers with what turned out to be a pellet gun.

Police nabbed them on the street nearby and recovered the $164,000 in cash, which the family was hoping to send back to relatives in Bangladesh

Not sure about Bangledesh but I have a friend from India and it's against his religion to make interest on money. He keeps all his bank accounts secet from his wife because she believes interest is evil. :rolleyes:

ha, now peaches is gona want to know where are your secret bank accounts are located :ph34r:

"Who the hell keeps $164,000 cash in their house?"

Probley more people than you would think... :D

When was the last time you heard someone say, "Yunno, I found a great spot in the house to hide that $200k I made from the overseas cash deal. The IRS will never find it there!"
