On
11-07-18 at about 9:56 am, the Eureka Police Department dispatch
center received a 911 call from a Bank at the 300 block of F Street,
regarding a robbery that had just occurred. It was reported that the
suspect presented the Teller a note demanding money. The Teller
complied and handed the suspect an envelope containing U.S. currency.
The suspect then exited the Bank.
Officers
responded and immediately located the suspect outside of the
entry/exit doors of the Bank. The suspect, identified as Tracey
Dontaye Drew (31 years old), was detained without incident. Drew was
found to be in possession of the stolen envelope of U.S. currency
taken during the robbery. He was positively identified as the suspect
by Bank staff.
Drew
was ultimately booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility
on charges of robbery and is being held on $50,000 bail.
This
is an ongoing investigation and further details will be released if
appropriate.
