1 Arrested After 2 Rob Cockeysville Bank At Gunpoint

Police have one man in custody and are searching for another following the robbery of a Cockeysville bank late last week.

Arnold Russell Threet, 48, of the 2600 block of Monument Street in Baltimore was arrested and faces three counts of armed robbery, four counts of first-degree assault, one count of theft and a handgun charge, according to online court records.

He is being held without bail at the Baltimore County Detention Center, records show. 

Threet and another man walked into the 1st Mariner Bank branch located at 9840 York Road around 10:30 a.m. July 5, displayed a small black BB gun and ordered all of the employees to get on the ground, according to a police report.

One of the men jumped over the counter and emptied cash drawers while the other stayed in the lobby watching over the employees, the report states.

The men fled in a small, gold-colored car and drove to a nearby Lowes where they switched vehicles and Threet was arrested, the report states. 

The second suspect is described as a black male between 20 and 30 years old, approximately 5’5” tall and 150 pounds with a medium build. He was last seen wearing all black clothing, a black mask and gloves. 

A booking photo of Threet was not made immediately available by Baltimore County Police, who cited an ongoing investigation.
