ROCKY HILL, CT - The Massachusetts man who was chased by a state senator from Wethersfield at a local Webster Bank Branch remained in custody this week while awaiting his second court appearance.

Christopher Lunn, 32, has two sets of second-degree robbery and fifth-degree larceny on his legal plate and is, according to state judicial system records, scheduled to appear in court again on July 10, eight months to the day state Sen. Paul Doyle, who was a customer inside the bank at the time, chased him outside the bank.

Lunn is being held in collective bonds totaling $50,000, according to court records.

He had been serving time in Massachusetts on narcotics charges, Rocky Hill police said, and was brought to Connecticut on an extraditable warrant after his sentence was up in the commonwealth.

Rocky Hill police said, though they commend Doyle for "defending his community," residents should use caution and "know who they are chasing," when acting confronting criminals who might be armed.

Doyle is an avid runner.
