KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) A northeast Kansas man whose getaway vehicle was a city bus has pleaded guilty to robbing a bank.
The U.S. Attorney’s office says Jamarr Dale (29) faces up to 20 years in federal prison after pleading guilty Thursday to one count of bank robbery.
The holdup occurred Jan. 2 at a Security Bank branch in Dale’s hometown of Kansas City, Kan.
Dale admitted handing a teller a note that said, “I need $3,000 or I will start shooting.” He left after the teller gave him a drawer full of cash.
Police received a call saying the robber had boarded a city bus outside a nearby Wal-Mart. Officers boarded the bus within minutes and arrested Dale with what was described as a large amount of cash, but no gun.
