FBI: Bank robber arrested after giving teller his state ID for “withdrawal”

January 27, 2021 CWBChicago Citywide Edner Flores | CPD

A Chicago man is facing federal bank robbery charges after he allegedly complied with the teller’s request to see his ID during a hold-up this week.

According to an FBI agent’s complaint, the robber wrote “$10,000” “No die packs” and “armed” on a deposit slip and handed it to a teller at PNC Bank, 3337 West North Avenue in Humboldt Park, around 11:45 a.m. Monday.

The teller tripped a silent alarm and then told the robber that he needed to fill out a withdrawal slip — not a deposit slip — if he wanted to get money.

Edner Flores Jr. obediently filled out the correct paperwork for his request and handed it back, the FBI agent alleged. And when the teller asked for his ID to complete the transaction, he reportedly forked that over, too.

Ironically, the secretary of state issued Flores’ ID just three days before the hold-up, so he was lucky to have one. Sorta.

many, many years ago I was watching COPs Where an elderly lady had been accosted by two Hispanic boy. the cops made an arrest a few blocks away and brought the boys back for identification. Instead of asking the lady to identify the boys the cop asked the them if that was the lady they robbed. they both said, on camera, yes that’s her yeah her.
