SENTENCED: SPENCER BANK ROBBER WHO SHAVED HEAD TO AVOID CAPTURE |
| (05/22/2008) |
| A Roane County man who tried to elude capture by shaving his head has been sentenced to nine years in prison for robbing the Traders Bank in Spencer.
Before they complied with his demands, he ran out of the bank and went to a nearby barbershop and had his head shaved. Tracy Dorsey Chapman, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's office in Charleston says Spencer police and a fire marshal caught Chapman later at the edge of town. He was sentenced yesterday by U.S. District Judge John T. Copenhaver. See SPENCER BANK ROBBER CAUGHT AFTER USING RAZOR ON EMPLOYEE TRADER'S BANK VP HAD RAZOR AT THROAT
