Suspect Apprehended During Bank Robbery
Fair Oaks Police District – Two men inside a bank during an armed robbery disarmed the gunman and held him until police arrived. On Wednesday, May 20, police were called to the BB&T Bank, located at 13300 Franklin Farm Road, around 10:44 a.m. An investigation determined the man entered the bank wearing a mask, displayed a handgun and announced the robbery. That’s when the two men were able to subdue him after a brief struggle. Officers arrived a short time later and took the suspect into custody.
The two men sustained minor injuries during the scuffle with the gunman. The 23-year-old victim was transported to Inova Fair Oaks Hospital and the 42-year-old victim was treated at the scene. The investigation is ongoing.
