GLEN BURNIE, Md. — A barricade situation has been resolved following a bank robbery in Glen Burnie on Saturday, according to Councilman Eric Costello.
Costello says that two individuals robbed a bank in Anne Arundel County and fled on mopeds heading north on Route 2 near South Hanover Street.
Anne Arundel County Police say that the armed robbery happened at a Well Fargo in the 6700 block of Ritchie Highway.
One suspect was arrested shortly after fleeing. The second suspect fled to Baltimore City and barricaded himself inside a home on the 1500 block of South Hanover Street.
That person was arrested a short time later. No injuries were reported.
Despite initial reports claiming the robbers were a man and woman. Police later revised their statement, stating they arrested 35-year-old Frank Williams and 44-year-old Bernard Turner.
The stolen money and items were recovered. However, the value of the stolen goods remain unknown at this time.
Costello says that there is still a heavy police presence in the area, and the block is expected to be cleared by 1:30 p.m.
