9/16/2001

A KeyBank branch in Oregon was robbed of an undisclosed amount of money yesterday by a man who gave a teller a note demanding cash, authorities said.

Darrin Scott Graham, 21, of 1202 Starr Ave., was arrested at his apartment at 2 p.m. and charged with bank robbery, said Carl L. Spicocchi, supervisor of FBI operations in northwest Ohio.

The holdup occurred about 10 a.m. at the KeyBank branch at 3160 Navarre Ave. No weapons were brandished, and no injuries were reported, Oregon police Sgt. Jim Baker said.

The robber fled in a car driven by a man. The getaway car was pulled over by Perrysburg Township police about 10:30 a.m. at Tracy Road and State Rt. 795 in Perrysburg Township, after witnesses had passed along the vehicle's license plate number.

The driver claimed to have no knowledge of what occurred. No charges have been pressed against the driver, according to Mr. Spicocchi and Sergeant Baker. They declined to release his name.
