On Tuesday, Aug. 6, the Glendale Police Dept. arrested 28-year-old Pablo Miguel Lopez of Sylmar for robbery.

On Tuesday at 3:55 p.m., Glendale officers responded to the Bank of America located at 3812 San Fernando Road in the City of Glendale regarding a robbery in progress. A male, later identified as Lopez, entered the bank carrying a bag and approached a bank teller. Lopez presented a demand note that indicated he wanted money and he was in possession of a bomb and a gun.

The Glendale Police Dept. was notified and quickly surrounded the bank. Lopez exited the bank without the bag or money and he was taken into custody without incident.
