A police patrol arrested a 70-year-old man Sunday who is suspected of robbing a Rishon Letzion bank a short time earlier.
Initial investigation of the incident revealed that the suspect entered a bank branch and gave a note to the teller and threatened her with a screwdriver. He then robbed a sum of money and fled the scene.
The suspect will be arraigned for extension of his remand in the Rishon Letzion Magistrates Court.
