BANK ROBBERY AND CHASE ENDS IN SUSPECT SURRENDERING

We have a little more information about a robbery at a Lake Hallie bank this morning.

It was on Monday July 15 at about 9:37am the Citizens Community Federal Bank located on Commercial Blvd in the Village of Lake Hallie reported an armed robbery. Lake Hallie Detective Adam Meyers arrived in the area first and was operating an unmarked vehicle when he observed a vehicle that had a description that was close to that of the suspect vehicle.

He followed the vehicle and attempted to stop it while it was getting on STH-29 from STH-53 and that’s when the chase started and left STH-29 and continued upon County Highways in the Town of Lafayette. The pursuit
was joined by deputies of the Chippewa County Sheriff’s Office and ended after nearly 20 minutes at just after 10 in the morning when the suspect vehicle pulled over and the occupant surrendered.
The suspect taken into custody appears to have acted alone and is a 42 year-old white male from Milwaukee.

A joint investigation into the Bank Robbery continues.
