A man who police say has now committed four armed bank robberies was released without bail due to New York’s lenient new bail reform rules.
Police in New York reported that bank robber Christopher Seamans was arrested on Tuesday for robbing yet another bank but was then released without bail due to the reform laws.
The police say that the 41-year-old suspect robbed the Pioneer Bank in Albany on Friday and got away with an undisclosed amount of cash, the Times Union reported.
Video of the crime shows Seamans demanding cash at a teller’s window. He did not show a weapon, but kept his hand menacingly inside his jacket during the robbery.
