2 held in robbery outside Sandy Springs bank

Sandy Springs police said two suspects in a robbery outside a Bank of America were captured Friday, but the search continued for others.

The robbery victim told Channel 2 Action News that he was headed into the bank in the 8700 block of Roswell Road to make a deposit when a money pouch was grabbed from his hands.

Shortly after 11 a.m., police began chasing several suspects down Ga. 400 to I-285, then south on I-285 through Cobb County into Atlanta.  A police maneuver forced the driver to wreck the white Chevrolet Monte Carlo with dealer tags at the intersection of Donald Lee Hollowell Parkway and Bolton Road in northwest Atlanta.

The two suspects taken into custody were identified as Ricardo D. Taylor, 25, and Deanthony Laster, 23, both of Atlanta. Police used  K-9 units to search for the remaining suspects, who fled on foot.

Police said the robbery victim was not injured and the items taken were recovered.
