Enterprise police have arrested a 23-year-old man on charges he robbed the Community Bank and Trust bank earlier this week in Enterprise. According to a statement from the Enterprise Police Department, police arrested Benjamin Smith, of Enterprise. The statement said the police investigation has revealed Smith as the “lone offender” in the robbery, which happened Monday morning around 10 a.m.
Police released information after the robbery that a man wore a motorcycle helmet along with a hooded sweatshirt as he entered the bank.
Police said the man then approached a teller and demanded money. The suspect did not show a firearm, but the teller was led to believe he had one tucked near his waist.
The suspect escaped with an undisclosed amount of money.
The police statement also said additional investigation led police to charge Smith with another earlier bank robbery in Enterprise, which occurred at the Citizen’s Bank branch on Rucker Boulevard in February 2010.
Police say Smith is currently held without bail at the Coffee County Jail.
