MARYSVILLE – Marysville police quickly caught a bank robber just 100 yards from the bank when a police dog found him hiding in some bushes Friday night, March 6.

MPD Cmdr. Robb Lamoureux said police were able to respond so fast because of a 911 hang-up call made by a Home Street Bank employee while the robber was still in the bank.

Lamoureux said the robber pointed a handgun at a bank employee, demanded money and fled.

Police arrested a 22-year-old Texas man who was found with a handgun and a large amount of money. He was being booked into jail for investigation of first-degree robbery.
