Man arrested after Corydon Avenue bank robbery

A man has been charged after a Corydon Avenue bank was robbed Monday evening.

Police were contacted shortly after 6:30 p.m. after a man passed a note to the teller at the front counter and then got in a vehicle after getting cash.

No weapon was used, the Winnipeg Police Service said in a news release Wednesday.

Officers found the getaway vehicle in a parking lot on the 1100 block of Grant Avenue. Their investigation led them to a home in the south River Heights area, and officers arrested a 29-year-old man at 1:40 a.m. Tuesday. He has been charged with robbery and was detained in custody.

The only financial institution on the 1100 block of Corydon is the TD bank at 1114 Corydon.
