Arrest Made in September Bank Robbery

The FBI arrested John Larry Morrison, 36, of Greensboro, in connection with the September 23 SunTrust bank robbery.

The man responsible for both robberies was dubbed the "No Bag Bandit" because he carried the stolen cash off in his hands instead of using a bag, the FBI said.

Morrison, also known as Ralph Linwood, was already being held in the Durham County jail in connection with the Dec. 17 robbery of a Rite Aid drug store.

Originally, authorities said they believed Morrison was linked to the Jan. 19 robbery of a Wells Fargo branch at 1301 Fifth Ave. in Garner. He is no longer considered a suspect in that robbery, the FBI said.
