A suspect who held five people captive during an eight-hour standoff at a Wells Fargo bank in St. Cloud, Minnesota, has been arrested and will be charged with aggravated robbery, kidnapping and second-degree assault., authorities said.
It was a "peaceful resolution, the best possible outcome we could have had," said St. Cloud Police Chief Blair Anderson. Four of the hostages were released and a fifth hostage "made a run for the door" right before the tactical units from the St. Cloud Police Department and the FBI "made a simultaneous entry and took the suspect into custody without incident," Anderson said. All of the hostages were bank employees according to police.More Related News
