I may have to go on the lam, you guys

[Bells]

You need a car, a weapon, at least 3 possible and viable hostages and a getaway vehicle.

Buy multiple tickets on your credit car. Train, bus, Air on multiple time slots... doesn't matter, they will trace them all but won't be able to tell which one you will use and you won't be able to use the credit card for anything else anyways, so might as well make it for good use.

Then, of course, buy some Hair Dye (cash only, in somewhere with no cameras), take your hostage unconscious to the complet opposite direction where you want to go and leave him there to be found (distraction!), leave some silly clues for it too!

That should buy you a couple of days to have the feds and local possible scrambling around for you on all the wrong places.

At that point... Canada. Then Alaska. Then you go west for asia by sea.

It's almost too easy!
