FIRST ON 5 NEWS UPDATE: Suspect Accused of Robbing BB&T Arrested

Justin Adams, 27, was arrested Tuesday afternoon at the Brickshire Circle Apartments in Bridgeport.

Grafton Police say Adams walked into the BB&T around 10:50 Monday morning and handed the teller a note that said he had a weapon.

He got away with an unknown amount of cash.

Grafton Police, Bridgeport Police, the FBI, the U.S. Marshals Service, the Taylor County Sheriff's Department, and the investigator from the Taylor County Prosecuting Attorney's Office took part in the investigation.

And police say it's not the first time he's been accused of robbing a bank.  He was convicted for trying to rob the Huntington National Bank in Clarksburg back in 2004.

Adams is in the North Central Regional Jail on a parole violation charge, and he's also charged with bank robbery out of Taylor County.
