Police arrested a Pennsylvania man yesterday who they say posed as an armored-car driver and took a large amount of cash from an Ellicott City bank Thursday.
Police in York, Pa., arrested Robert Allen Flanagan, 37, of Dallastown, Pa., at his home about 12:30 a.m. yesterday, according to the Howard County Police Department. Flanagan is a former employee of Dunbar Armored Inc., police said.
About noon Thursday, a man walked into the Bank of America in the 9100 block of U.S. 40 dressed as a Dunbar security employee and left with bags of money, police said. Bank employees recognized Flanagan, but became suspicious after he left in what appeared to be a personal car, police said. The employees then contacted Dunbar and confirmed that the pickup was not authorized.
