Fri Feb 10, 2006 ATHENS (Reuters) - Greek robbers Thursday drove a car through the front door of an Athens bank, got their cash and drove out as stunned customers and staff looked on, police said.

"The raiders used a stolen Fiat car to smash into a Piraeus Bank branch in the Peristeri region of Athens," a police official told Reuters. "Two men got out of the car, took out guns and robbed the bank."

No one was hurt in the robbery or the crash, police said.
