Her Tweets:

‘They won’t let us leave the bank…Police just arrived. Maybe they’ll let me go now…They want to question us. I didn’t even notice this happening while I was standing there…

‘Honestly I didn’t notice anything. Bank was very professional, teller calm… Four of us being held. It’s one woman’s birthday and she is offering me a granola bar. She is too cute. One man has low blood sugar. Can we GO?!’

When all of the drama finally subsided, Dooling was able to Tweet: ‘I’m out!!!!!!!!!’
