Just 45 minutes after he demanded money from a teller in Milton and fled on a red Vespa scooter, a Milton man was arrested by State Police in Dorchester yesterday, police said.

About 9:15 a.m., William Donovan, 35, walked into the Citizens Bank on Granite Avenue and handed the teller a note, said Deputy Chief Paul T. Nolan of the Milton police.

The teller handed over a bag of cash - police would not disclose the amount, but said a dye pack was included - and activated a silent alarm. State Police caught up with Donovan shortly after 10 a.m. on Gallivan Boulevard.

Donovan has been charged with armed robbery because the note threatened to shoot the teller, Nolan said. State Police caught up with Donovan shortly after 10 a.m. on Gallivan Boulevard. Donovan has been charged with armed robbery because the note threatened to shoot the teller, Nolan said.
