Most dads enjoy spending time with their kids, by going to the movies or the beach. For Ronald Catt it was slightly different, because he took his son and daughter out to rob banks. The trio was finally caught this week..
ABCNews had this to say:
A father, son and daughter may be responsible for robbing as many as seven banks in two states, according to authorities.
Ronald Scott Catt, 50, and his two children, 20-year-old Hayden and 18-year-old Abby were arrested last week on charges they robbed a credit union in Katy, Texas.
Deputies with the Fort Bend Sheriff’s Office in Texas say the family, which recently moved to the area, could also be responsible for several other robberies in Texas and their native Oregon.
During the Oct. 1 robbery in Texas, two figures, who appear to be Ronald and Hayden Catt, entered the bank in disguises and toting guns before leaving with money and jumping into a getaway car driven by Abby Catt.
But you can’t put it down to bad parenting, after all, things haven’t been easy for Ronald:
Eric Lundeen told ABC News he knows the Catt family and said they seemed like “really solid community members”.
“He was a single dad. I think he lost his wife and he had the responsibility to take care of his kids and I got to tell you, he was there for them,” Lundeen said.

Shame – it’s not easy making ends meet. It’s quite special that he managed to spend time with is kids, while earning cash.
