Cops: SC man arrested for NC armored car robbery

WILLIAMSTON, S.C. (AP) — Authorities in South Carolina say they have arrested a man wanted for robbing two armored car guards at gunpoint as they serviced an ATM this week.

Anderson County deputies say Jerry Bogan was arrested Friday morning after he left his home in Williamston. The FBI identified Bogan as a suspect several hours before, but deputies waited to take him into custody until he was out of his home because a woman and several children were inside.

Authorities say two guards were at the ATM in Canton, N.C., on Thursday when they were robbed. The guards then drove to a nearby bank to report the armed robbery.

Investigators say Bogan was being held on a fugitive warrant as officials considered other charges. It wasn’t clear if he had an attorney.
