Peachtree City

Police have apprehended a former city resident accused of robbing two

people at gunpoint at the night deposit area of the Bank of America on

Crosstown Drive Nov. 16.

David Ryan

Garza, 18, was arrested Friday and charged with armed robbery and possession

of marijuana. According to police, the employees were making a deposit

for a local retail store that Garza used to work for.

The gunman

wore a mask and a sweat suit, according to original police reports. He

got away with cash and checks which were in a plastic bag.

Garza had recently

moved to Detroit, but investigators lured him back to Peachtree City before

he discovered he was a suspect, police said. Garza was arrested without

incident when he returned to a former roommate's house to pick up some

of his personal property, police said.

At the time

of the robbery, Garza was still living in Peachtree City, police said.

The investigation,

which is still ongoing, involved cooperation with other jurisdictions.

The focus now will be on looking for any possible co-perpetrators and

other leads that have been received, police said.

The investigation

was described as "extensive" by police, and it has included

the execution of several search warrants and surveillance operations.

Police also

posted a $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction

of anyone involved with the crime.
