INFAMOUS WEST VIRGINIA BANK ROBBERS - Add This Guy To The List |
| (01/16/2004) |
|
The Herald has published stories about bank robbers in West Virginia in recent years, most of which have had a bizarre
twist, such as the thief who used his bike as a get-a-way vehicle. A man was arrested for robbing a Parkersburg bank this week after he returned to take down the note demanding money. He had taped the note to a drive-through window. Thirty-six-year-old Eugene D. Golden of Briarwood is now charged with non-aggravated robbery. Police say Eugene Golden, wearing a hooded sweat shirt and a ball cap, walked up to the drive-through at Community Bank and taped a note to the window. The note said an explosive device would be detonated if tellers did not give him cash. Tellers handed over $21,000. The man then fled in a green vehicle with a cardboard sign reading "lost tag" over the license plate and duct tape over the make of the vehicle. The robber then drove to nearby Emerson Bowling Lanes, changed clothes in his car and then walked back to the bank to retrieve the note. He stuffed it in his pocket. A police officer on the scene investigating the robbery, saw him take the note down and told him to stop. The man ran back to his car and was captured as he was getting in. Golden is now in North Central Regional Jail. |
