A 27-year-old man suspected of robbing a Georgia bank was found sleeping in the home of an unsuspecting woman days after the crime was committed, authorities said. James Raborn was arrested Wednesday on multiple charges, including armed robbery, reckless driving, attempting to elude police, and other traffic offenses. The suspect allegedly passed a note to a teller at a Truist Bank in Roswell, demanding money and claiming to have a gun. Police received a 911 call about 10 minutes after the robbery, but the suspect had already fled the scene.
Using surveillance footage from the bank and neighboring businesses, along with technology from the department’s Roswell Crime Center, detectives were able to identify a vehicle of interest and potential suspects. The following morning, officers responded to a location where the vehicle was spotted by license plate readers. The suspect attempted to evade police but eventually crashed the vehicle in Mountain Park. A woman was found inside the crashed vehicle, and investigators learned that she allegedly participated in the robbery.
Officers from multiple agencies flooded the area to search for the suspect, but were unable to locate him. However, cell phone data led detectives to believe that the suspect was still in the area. Police responded to a property where the cell phone had pinged and found evidence of recent activity in an outbuilding. When the homeowner opened the door to let police in, she discovered the suspect lying on the floor of a spare bedroom.
Raborn was taken into custody without incident, and it was revealed that he likely entered the home through a kitchen window while the homeowner was away. Police are still investigating the case and suspect that Raborn and the woman found in the crashed vehicle may be connected to several other armed robberies in the Atlanta area.
