WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - The suspect in a Wichita bank robbery was quickly apprehended after a relative recognized televised images of the bearded, balding man in sunglasses and a bright green jacket.
KSNW-TV reports (https://bit.ly/1fGvcyT ) a man entered a Bank of America branch around 4 p.m. Thursday, demanded money from a teller and ran away.
Authorities immediately released a surveillance photo of the suspect to the media. Within an hour, said police Lt. Doug Nolte, a relative recognized the man and brought him back to the bank.
