Jordan Hughes Thank you DRPS! As a former Bank employee, and victim of a robbery it makes me very pleased to see how quickly you were able to make the arrest. Great peace of mind for those employees and potential customers who were there. They can sleep tonight knowing the suspect went in handcuffs!
