(Gold Canyon, AZ) This morning at 9:38 a.m. a bank robbery occurred at the “Wells Fargo Bank” located at 6607 S. Kings Ranch Road in Gold Canyon.

During the robbery, a firearm was displayed by the suspect and fired inside of the bank. Nobody was injured. After obtaining an undisclosed amount of currency, the suspect fled in a white Ford Ranger.

The Pinal County Sheriff’s Office received the 9-1-1 call within two minutes of the time the suspect fled. A patrol deputy located a possible suspect vehicle and conducted a high risk stop on it.

The two bank robbery suspects were taken into custody without incident.
