Texas man drove loaner car to bank robbery before trying to buy a BMW with stolen cash
A Texas man was arrested after driving a loaner car from a car dealership to rob a bank. The 50-year-old robbed the bank and went back to the dealership with the plan to to buy a new BMW. Last week Eric Dion Warren was sentenced to 20 years in prison, the incident took place on June 7, 2019. U.S. District Judge James Wesley Hendrix dished out the sentence.
In a press statement the Department of Justice for the Northern District of Texas, court documents show that Warren entered AIM Bank in Wolfforth and approached a teller. The man placed a paper fast food bag and a note on the counter that read: “This is a f—— robbery. Play with me and die. I want $10,000 in 50 and 100 dollar bills. Now you got 1 minute or I will kill you.”
Warren pulled out a gun which was later revealed to be a painted pellet gun he added, “I ain’t playing around, I only want 100s and 50s.”
The teller emptied the drawers of the money including strapped twenty-dollar bills with recorded serials that were traceable. Warren warned them not to “push any buttons,” before fleeing. Warren went back to the dealership to finalize the sale of a BMW and appeared to have waved the money at employees before making $3,000 down payment.
“While Mr. Warren was in the dealership’s finance office, an employee received a phone call informing him of the recent bank robbery. The employee realized that the vehicle used in the bank robbery matched the vehicle the dealership had loaned to Mr. Warren and he alerted law enforcement,” federal prosecutors said.
At the time of the arrest, Warren had $5,086 in cash with him.
“The serial numbers of the money found on Mr. Warren’s person were cross-referenced and matched the numbers of the bills stolen from AIM bank,” the statement.
