Suspected bank robbers attempt to evade capture from the police by throwing fistfuls of cash out the window of their vehicle during a one-hour chase through downtown Los Angeles.

The robbers drover their truck through the tight streets of LA and threw the cash at passer-bys in an attempt to block the chasing police cruisers.

Some members of the public collected the money which the police later requested be returned.

The car was eventually stopped when it was blocked by another driver in a van at a tight junction.

One man was arrested and police are searching for four others.
