ST. PAUL, Minn. — A West Virginia man is sentenced to more than 5 1/2 years in prison for robbing a Gate City Bank branch in Moorhead in 2019.
53-year-old Robert Evans handed the teller a note stating he had a gun and did not want “bait” while reaching for his back waistline.
The teller gave him nearly $4,000 and he fled on foot.

He was ordered to pay restitution to both banks totaling nearly $4700.
