WENTZVILLE, Mo. (AP) - Authorities say a man suspected of robbing a suburban St. Louis credit union was caught sitting on the curb of a nearby police station less than an hour after he was released from there.
Twenty-year-old Karsten Hardeman, of Dayton, Ohio, is jailed on $100,000 bond on a charge of first-degree robbery and stealing from a financial institution. No attorney is listed for him in online court records.
Police in Wentzville say $100 bills fell out of Hardeman’s pocket when an officer ordered him to show his hands.
