Suspect Allegedly Showed Gun, Fled with Cash
According to authorities, a suspect entered the bank, handed a teller a demand letter, took an undisclosed quantity of money, and then escaped. He apparently displayed a pistol in his waistband, but it was neither pointed or discharged during the crime. There were no injuries recorded.
During their investigation, investigators “determined Nguyen was the individual responsible for the bank robbery.”

The United States Marshals Service arrested him on July 3rd in Horsham, Pennsylvania. He is currently being imprisoned at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility for extradition to New Jersey.
