Security video shot of the alleged robber (Police photo)
While most of us were glued to our TVs or computer monitors watching the 44th president of the United States prepare to be sworn in, the guy in the photo above was already taking action to improve his personal economy. Police say he walked into TD Banknorth in Lawrence and handed a teller a note demanding 20 and 50 dollar bills. He walked out with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Despite the hood, the above photo gives us a pretty good idea of what the guy looks like. Word from Lawrence PD is that they’re questioning someone in regards to this burglary now. No word yet on whether the guy their talking to is their suspect or not. The Eagle-Tribune will post as soon as we know more.
UPDATE: Looks like our Inauguration Day robber has ‘fessed up.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Police noticed sweatshirt
