Goodyear police arrested an 82-year-old man in connection with an armed robbery at a local bank last week.

The FBI said Charles Manrow entered the First Bank near Litchfield and McDowell roads on Nov. 15, presented a demand note and allegedly displayed a weapon before fleeing with an undisclosed amount of money.

Records indicate the teller gave him about $1,300 in cash.

Goodyear police stopped Mr. Manrow’s vehicle shortly afterwards and arrested him.

Further investigation by the FBI reveals Mr. Manrow was wanted by the U.S. Marshals Service for walking away from the Garden Grover Residential Re-entry Center, a federal incarceration facility in Orange County, California back in September.

He had received $25,000 from a former drug associate to flee California. He did so, taking a bus to Georgia and purchasing the vehicle used in the robbery.

Mr. Manrow reportedly bought a BB gun and stole an Oregon license plate while in that state. He then drove to Arizona with the purpose of transporting drugs, records state. However, he was running low on money and decided to rob banks. He chose the Goodyear bank while driving past it.

Court documents state Mr. Manrow in 2007 was sentenced to 181 months in prison and four years of supervised released following a conviction of armed robbery. He was also charged with 11 bank robberies in California, Colorado, Utah and Tucson between 2005 and 2007.

The Orange County Register in 2006 referred to Mr. Manrow as the “senior citizen bandit” while a Tucson news station says the FBI dubbed him the “Grandpa Bandit.”
