Police arrested a man they suspect of robbing a Centerville bank after a standoff at his home late Monday.

A man dressed in a camouflage jacket went into Chase Bank at 315 N. Marketplace Drive about 3:45 p.m. on Monday, told a teller he was a robber and demanded money, said Centerville police Lt. Paul Child. After receiving some cash, the man walked away and dropped a handgun he had not previously displayed. He recovered his gun and fled, Child said.

Later a beautician at a nearby Dollar Cuts reported that a man matching the robber's description was getting into a black truck. Police had earlier received reports of a reckless driver in a black truck and matched that license plate to a home near 1900 South and Spring Creek Drive.

SWAT teams tried to contact the man by phone and then by bullhorn, which prompted a 12-year-old boy to leave the house. He was taken into protective care, Child said. Teams then used tear gas and went into the house, where they arrested the child's father.

Child would not identify the man, pending charges.
