[March 17, 2011]  DAYTON, Ohio (AP) -- Police in Ohio say a man robbed a bank and then tried to flee on board a public bus, where officers eventually caught up with him.

Dayton police Sgt. Moe Perez tells the Dayton Daily News the suspect got away with cash from a downtown KeyBank branch at around 10 a.m. Wednesday. Police were told by witnesses that they saw the man catch a bus about two blocks away. Officers followed the route of the bus and pulled it over less than a mile away, near the campus of Sinclair Community College. Perez says the suspect was arrested without incident and the money was recovered. Police haven't said how much was stolen. ___ Information from: Dayton Daily News, http://www.daytondailynews.com/ [Associated Press] Copyright 2011 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
