Wrong Suspect Arrested In Jenkins Bank Robbery
Jenkins Police thought they had solved last week's band robbery...but, the case took an unusual twist. It appears they arrested the wrong person.
After taking Ricky Bates into custody, his brother came forward and confessed to the robbery. Derick Bates revealed to police only details only the actual crminal would know.
Derick Bates said on the day of the robbery at Community Trust Bank he wore his brother's clothing as a disguise. Derick Bates is now charged with the crime previously attributed to his brotheer...first degree robbery.
