FBI agents shot one bank robbery suspect dead and arrested two others at a bank in the small town of Richmond on Friday, investigators said.

Federal investigators had been tailing the three men on I-90 and to the bank because they were suspected of previous bank robberies and were thought to be planning another, a source close to the investigation said.

FBI spokeswoman Joan Hyde said the men "had been the subject of an investigation," but declined to elaborate.

The shooting occurred at about 11:30 a.m. in the parking lot of Associated Bank at 10910 N. Main St. in Richmond, on Route 12 just west of the Chain O' Lakes near Wisconsin. Hyde did not know what precipitated the shooting, but said the suspects never entered the bank.

Of course not.... They didn't mention race because they were those lousy crack-smoking Amish again.
