Burglary insurance rates rise after bank robberies
Statewide insurance hikes follow summer and fall bank burglaries as vigilance groups falter. Rates jumped from $1.20 to $5 per thousand in towns under 5,000, from $1 to $4 for 4,000 to 25,000 residents, and from $1 to $3 in larger cities. Banks now keep only minimal cash on hand and require customers to give a day’s notice for large sums.
