Suffield Police Identify Suspected Bank Robber

Suffield police have identified the man suspected of ripping off a Webster Bank in town and are preparing an arreste warrant charging him in the robbery.

Police said the suspect is on parole and is currently being detained by the Department of Corrections Parole Unit.

Authorities initially said the suspect may have been linked to other bank robberies in Trumbull, Stamford and Rye, New York.

Trumbull police arrested a bank robbery suspect on Monday. George John Bratsenis, 65, has been charged with four felony counts, including first-degree larceny, first-degree robbery, second-degree arson and illegal possession of a weapon in a motor vehicle, according to court records.

It's not clear if Bratsenis is the suspect police believe may be connected to the Suffield case.

The Suffield robbery suspect has not been publicly identified.
