He was captured a few hundred yards away after a dye pack exploded, covering him in red dye.
Maybe it's because he drank a beer throughout the entire chase.
The heist happened at the branch at 402 S. Burnett Road about 11:15 a.m. Friday. The man dropped the bag filled with a fake stack of bills near Burnett and Lexington.
People followed the suspect, who was running northbound on Burnett Road near Springfield Regional Medical Center. He was nabbed near Burnett and High Street near the hospital.
Police took the man back to the bank, where he was identified by witnesses.
Police have not released the identity of the man arrested. They say charges are pending.
