| FBI Boston October 29, 2011 |
BOSTON—Last night, the Tewksbury Police Department announced the arrest of a wanted bank robber who was being sought by Tewksbury and Woburn Police and the FBI’s Violent Crimes Task Force.
On October 27, 2011, the FBI issued a joint press release seeking the public’s assistance to identify the individual allegedly responsible for robbing the RTN Federal Credit Union on September 16, 2011.
On October 28, 2011, after receiving a tip resulting from a media report about the alleged robber, the agencies conducted a joint investigation that led to the arrest of Kenneth Kelley of Tewksbury Massachusetts. The Tewksbury Police arrested him on state charges relating to the alleged robbery of RTN Federal Credit Union.
The agencies who worked on this case are extremely grateful for those who provided the tip. Cooperation from the public is law enforcement’s best ally to prevent, detect, and deter crime.
The Tewksbury Police issued a press release about the arrest and further inquiries about the charges should be directed to the Tewksbury Police Department.
