Arrest continues in Bluefield case involving Pennington
The Bluefield police and Virginia State Police pursued a case against Pennington who faced possible life in prison if convicted. He had previously robbed New Peoples Bank near Cargo Station, stealing about 12 000 with a pellet gun resembling an MP 5. He pleaded guilty in 2012 and, after a 5 to 18 year sentence, remained under supervision. In 2016 a motion was granted for bond with home confinement and drug testing, restitution, and law observance conditions. A March 2024 incident involving a supposed jail visit led to warrants as investigators pursued the suspect.
