Sidney bank robbery suspect in custody

The U.S. Bank on East Court Street was the scene of a bank robbery Saturday morning as the bank was preparing to close for the day.

Just before noon a man entered the bank and demanded money before fleeing from the scene on a bicycle.

Neil Cromes, 31, of Sidney was arrested and is in the Shelby County Jail in connection with the robbery. Cromes faces possible felony robbery charges.

The same U.S. Bank store was robbed on Oct. 15 and another Sidney man, 39-year-old Trevor Newbauer was arrested in connection with that robbery.

Both men are expected to appear in court this week.
