Suspect in Bank Robbery Arrested on Mt. Joy Ave.

Police arrested a man they found running from the direction of Central Park Ave. in relation to a bank robbery in Greenville a few moments ago, according to police sources and early reports.

The man, who was apprehended on Mt. Joy Ave. and Robin Hood Rd., was suspected to be running away from police due to his connection with a bank robbery which may have occurred earlier today at TD Bank of 824 Central Park Ave., in Scarsdale's postal code.

A bank manager who identied herself by first name only, would not confirm there had been an attempted robbery at the location. The possible robbery did not appear on early wire reports, only the pursuit. The manager told Scarsdale Patch, "No comment," when asked to elaborate on the specifics of the wire report. [Editor's note: When I told her she could just let us know if it was bogus information and we woud not publish anything, she insisted that they were unable to comment.]

The first wire report was issued at 4:40 p.m. by the Breaking News Network, which follows the activity of police dispatch and responder radio scanners. At 4:45 p.m. the notice of the pursuit was updated, saying the police had requested an EMS vehicle to tend to an officer with "a minor knee injury" along with a request for "a supervisor with camera."

A detective in the Greenburgh Police Department confirmed at 5:27 p.m. that there was no longer a pursuit, and that an indivdual who was suspected of committing illegal activity had been apprehended on Mt. Joy Ave. and was in police custody.

Scarsdale Patch will post an update as soon as we get more information.
