Two men are in custody following a bank robbery this afternoon in Daytona Beach.

The robbery occurred about 12:15 p.m. at the Riverside Bank, 1290 S. Nova Road, Daytona Beach police Investigator Jimmie Flynt said.

A man entered the bank and approached a teller and demanded "all your hundreds and fifties." The teller complied and the man ran out of the bank, Flynt said. Witnesses saw the man get into a green Jeep Cherokee which was found abandoned in the 500 block of Bellevue Avenue where it ran out of gasoline, he said.

The driver of the Jeep, identified as Jason Warren Dietrich, 35, called a friend to pick him up, while the robbery suspect, Randall Fredric Walker, 38, paid a stranger $50 to take him home, Flynt said.

Dietrich, who faces a charge of principal to robbery, was arrested after he retrieved his Jeep, Flynt said. Walker, who is accused of bank robbery, was arrested at his home, where some of the stolen cash was recovered.

This verifies my belief that criminals are stupid and lazy.
