Fugitive wanted for Raleigh bank robberies arrested by New Jersey State Police
New Jersey State Police arrested a 21-year-old man wanted as a fugitive suspect in a string of Wells Fargo bank robberies in Raleigh this month, Raleigh police said Friday.
Dominic Glenn fled to New Jersey following an active manhunt on Tuesday, police said.
Glenn is charged by Raleigh police with three counts of common law robbery and misdemeanor possession of a stolen registration plate in connection with at least three bank robberies, police said in a news release.
He was taken into custody without incident through a fugitive warrant request. Police have not released details on Glenn’s whereabouts at the time of the arrest.
Authorities say Glenn is suspected to have robbed:
▪ a Wells Fargo bank on Feb. 18 at 10:30 a.m. at 3400 Spring Forest Road
▪ a Wells Fargo bank on Feb. 22 at 12:25 p.m. at 2001 Clark Avenue at the Village District
▪ a Wells Fargo bank later on Feb. 22 at 12:43 p.m. on 2016 Fairview Road.
Two other bank robberies that occurred in Cary and Morrisville are connected, police said.
A Wells Fargo location at 305 Colonades Way in Cary was robbed on Feb. 22, police said.
Morrisville police previously said First Horizon Bank on Chapel Hill Road was also robbed the same day by someone whose description matched the suspects in the Raleigh robberies.
A spokesman for the Morrisville Police Department declined to say whether Glenn will face additional charges as a suspect in the town’s bank robbery.
Cary police did not return a News & Observer request Friday afternoon asking for updated information on the Cary bank robbery.
How manhunt began
A manhunt on Tuesday began when N.C. State University campus police said the Raleigh Police Department told them two suspects had fled on foot toward Centennial Campus after a traffic stop in the parking lot of the Mission Valley shopping center.
The suspects fled police and crashed a Ford Mustang near Centennial Parkway before escaping on foot.
The vehicle was left behind damaged and charred from catching fire, according to CBS17.
Authorities are searching for at least one other suspect in connection to the robberies as part of an ongoing investigation.
