bank robbery

FRESNO, California (AP) -- While police in the Northern California city of Stockton searched Saturday for an accomplice in a bank robbery that led to a police chase and deadly shootout, investigators said Saturday they suspect the same men carried out other area bank heists, including one at the same branch hit this week.

Federal prosecutors say a northern New Jersey man has been sentenced to nearly nine years in prison for robbing seven banks while he was on supervised release for another bank robbery.

Authorities are searching for a well-dressed man who robbed a northern New Jersey bank this week.

A New Jersey man who wore a dress and a woman's wig while robbing a bank last year is headed to prison.
