3 Men Face Robbery, Weapons Charges in Incident at Bank

Authorities say three Wichita men have been charged in the robbery of a local bank.

The Wichita Eagle reports that federal bank robbery and firearms charges were filed Tuesday against 34-year-old Raishat McGill, 29-year-old Andre Bryant and 25-year-old Elijah Shelton.

Authorities say two armed men entered Carson Bank around 10:30 a.m., demanding money from four employees inside. They forced two employees to open a vault.

The two men left with cash and drove away with another man who had stayed in the car.

Officers soon located the car and the men fled on foot until law enforcement caught them. Wichita police Sgt. Nikki Woodrow says officers recovered the money and two weapons.
