KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — A 42-year-old man has been sentenced to eight years and four months in federal prison for robbing two Kansas banks and one in Missouri.
The U.S. attorney’s office says Robert Robinson, of Kansas City, Missouri, was sentenced Monday. Prosecutors say that while robbing a Commerce Bank branch on May, 30, 2014, in Overland Park, Kansas, he threatened to “start shooting up the place” in a note.
He also admitted through his plea to robbing another Commerce Bank branch that same day in St. Joseph, Missouri, and a Bank of America in Overland Park, Kansas, earlier that month.
