"It's possible there are copycats for this, but this gentleman is showing many of the same characteristics and method of operation," says Captain Keen of the Glasgow Police Department.

29-year-old Mark A. Smith has been arrested and charged in connection with an Alabama bank robbery. It's a robbery with striking similarities to two recent Glasgow bank robberies.

Glasgow police are not clear on a connection between the perpetrator involved in the robbery at the CB&S Bank in Moulton, Alabama, and the recent Glasgow South Central Bank robberies on 31-E and Happy Valley Road. Regardless, many Glasgow residents say they're breathing a sigh of relief.

Just last Thursday, talk around one Happy Valley Road strip mall was the robbery of the South Central Bank yards away. Today, there's a different buzz in the barber shop.

"I think it makes everyone feel a little easier because it could've been anywhere that he went to get money," says Glasgow barber, Bobby Druen. "It could've been us."

"He's been in our community for some time, and I'm just thankful he did get caught before someone got hurt," adds former Glasgow pastor Keith Spears.

It hasn't been confirmed that the perpetrator, who is responsible for robbing both the South Central Bank on 31-E and the South Central Bank on Happy Valley Road, is in police custody.

29-year-old Mark A. Smith, of Indiana, was arrested and charged with first-degree robbery in connection with Saturday's Moulton, Alabama, bank robbery. Some similarities can be seen with the security images taken at the South Central Bank on 31-E, two weeks ago.

"Similarities were found about his outfit," Captain Keen explains. "He's wearing a white cap with sunglasses. Tthe body build and physical description is much the same. He's also addressing the teller with a note, so those characteristics are pretty interesting to connect him with the Glasgow robberies."

Now, some residents say, they're expecting Glasgow to get back to normal.

"Well, we hope and pray," Keith concludes. "We've got a lot of good people here."

While the FBI has taken over the investigation, Glasgow police are still urging anyone who may have details to call them at 651-5151.
