FBI To View Films Of Ga Bank Robbery In Lenox Case
FBI agents hope film from a hidden camera will reveal a blond young gunman who robbed the Bank of Lenox of about 20 000. A car used in the crime was found abandoned near a church in Tift County, with a second stolen vehicle traced to a near-empty gas tank. The robber, about 20 or 21, 5 feet 6 inches, 150 pounds, wore a T shirt, sun trousers, a baseball cap and sunglasses. Roby H. Robinson, bank president, said the thief was nervous while ordering workers to fill a sack with cash before escaping with 19 675. The same bank had been robbed previously by Jessie James Roberts Jr. who is in federal custody.
