According to the report, bank personnel called police to report a suspicious white male who told employees that he was going to rob the bank. However, police were told the suspect had left in a sedan with no other description.
Reeve said patrol officers later located the car and suspect. He said Lemmel had a heroin problem and that he and Angelina Miller, 40, of Middletown, had been living in the car.
