Why did Lt. Abrams make a comment for a bank located in Ypsilanti Township, that Washtenaw County Sheriff Clayton would be investigating? Wasn't there another recent bank robbery at the bank on the opposite side of this one across from Ypsilanti High School, at the corner of Hewitt and Packard, which, incidentally is robbed quite often. Connection between the two? Man, we need a read newspaper in this town. This on-line reporting just isn't capturing enough information. Yea, I know, not sure if an adtual printed version would, but there is greatly something missing since the days of yore.

OMG, just yesterday I was by there at the same time. I very seldom walk into my bank. I prefer to pay on line, or use my master-card for purchases (debit or credit) and just wait for my monthly statement. I hope nobody was injured, and the suspect/suspects are caught soon. Those of you that continue to say (CUTS) in law inforcement is needed, I pray for you!

My guess is is that AAPD Is assisting WCSD and had a spokesperson available with the information.
