Citibank Robbery Suspect Arrested in San Francisco

Jeremiah C. Martin is accused of walking in to a Citibank and demanding cash from a teller on Thursday.

After a 48-hour investigation, San Rafael police arrested a San Francisco man on suspicion of robbing a Citibank in downtown San Rafael Thursday afternoon, according to police spokeswoman Margo Rohrbacher.

Jeremiah C. Martin, 36, was booked in Marin County Jail on charges of robbery, as well as two outstanding warrants –one for possession of stolen property and the other for violating probation for dangerous drugs in Oregon. He is being held in lieu of $75,000.

Just before 5 p.m. on Dec. 22, a suspect walked in to Citibank on Third Street, went directly to a teller and demanded cash. No weapon was seen and he fled on foot, Rohrbahcer said.

The suspect was identified as Martin, and he was arrested at 10 p.m. Saturday at his apartment on Sixth Street in the Tenderloin neighborhood of San  Francisco.
