The Union County Sheriff's Office says Jeremy Scott Lemmond, of Couick Drive in Waxhaw, was arrested and charged with common law robbery. 
According to Donna Hinson of the sheriff's office, the robbery happened Monday at the First Citizens Bank, on Carroll Avenue.

With help from the FBI, detectives made the arrest Thursday. Hinson said Lemmond is in Union County Jail on a $25,000 bond. His first court appearance is scheduled for Nov. 2nd.
